1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
[18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
I can’t wait!
Heaven’s Jubilee
__________________________
Some glad morning we shall see Jesus in the air, — Coming after you and me, joy is ours to share. — What rejoicing there will be, when the saints shall rise, — Headed for that jubilee, yonder in the skies.
CHORUS:
Oh what singing, Oh what shouting, — On that happy morning when we all shall rise. — Oh what glory, Hallelujah! — — When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies.
Seems that now I almost see, all the sainted dead, — Rising for that jubilee, that is just ahead. — In the twinkling of an eye, changed with them to be, — All the living saints to fly, to that jubilee.
When with all that heavenly host, we begin to sing, — Singing in the Holy Ghost, how the heavens will ring. — Millions there will join the song, with them we shall be — Praising Christ through ages long, heaven's jubilee.
