Imminent

Christ's coming...It is imminent
Even at the door,
Events today confirm it
Through God's Word I am assured.
Christ's coming... it is imminent
Nothing standing in the way,
The Blessed Hope our comfort
Gives us courage for today.
Christ's coming...it is imminent
It could happen even now,
Be about the Father's business
Keep your hand upon the plow.
Christ's coming...it is imminent
No veering from the path,
For time it is of essence
To escape the coming wrath.
Christ's coming...it is imminent
Our redemption's nigh,
Soon we'll hear the trumpet's sound
And the Bridegroom's cry!
Christ's coming...It is imminent
Even at the door,
Soon we'll go to be with Him
In our home for ever more!
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18
16 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.
