<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blot your tears, dry your eyes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s time to say your tender good-byes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can’t you see, before long-<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Darkness soon will be gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Death holds me now, I can’t deny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But my soul is in Christ, He gives me life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The world will one day soon be anew,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God’s promises will always hold true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As it is written, in a blink of an eye,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
we will sing together, you and I-<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To the King, to our King,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the glorious sound of voices rising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To the glory, the praise of Jesus our Savior,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through whom we have Sovereign LORD’s unmerited favor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yahweh, Yahweh!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My life, Your way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will wipe every tear from our eyes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You make all things truly right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No longer will the cold freeze through our bones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No longer will we be lost, afraid and left to roam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yeshua, our hearts you hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And so we are at last, home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The Coming of the Lord<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 13\u00a0<\/strong>But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep,\u00a0 that you may not grieve as others do\u00a0who have no hope.\u00a014\u00a0<\/strong>For\u00a0since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him\u00a0those who have fallen asleep.\u00a015\u00a0<\/strong>For this we declare to you\u00a0by a word from the Lord,\u00a0that\u00a0we who are alive, who are left until\u00a0the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.\u00a016\u00a0<\/strong>For\u00a0the Lord himself will descend\u00a0from heaven\u00a0with a cry of command, with the voice of\u00a0an archangel, and\u00a0with the sound of the trumpet of God. And\u00a0the dead in Christ will rise first.\u00a017\u00a0<\/strong>Then we who are alive, who are left, will be\u00a0caught up together with them\u00a0in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so\u00a0we will always be with the Lord.\u00a018\u00a0<\/strong>Therefore encourage one another with these words.” –1 Thessalonians 4:13\u201318 (ESV)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR<\/em><\/strong>: Give credit to whom credit is due.
