Story behind the song
This song was inspired by a sermon about Christ's return
Lyrics
As a mother calls her children
when the evening shadows fall
Christ will one day stand and shout out
I am longing for his call.
Loud enough to end all trouble,
Cries of sickness, grief and pain
Will be silenced when Christ calls out
So I am listening...
And
Chorus
When he shouts (when He shouts) I will hear and I will rise.
if I'm dead the Grave will open
it will give me to the skies
and I'll meet him
I'll be caught up in the clouds --or-- (there's no doubt)
heaven starts for me forever
when He shouts
as fast and bright as lightening
He will be here in the skies
From the east, just like the sunrise
There will be a pow'rful sign
Then the angel sounds the trumpet
And they gather up the saved
Oh, be ready now my children,
I hope you're listening!
