The market place is empty,No more traffic in the streets,

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

All the builders tools are silent,

No more time to harvest wheat;

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Busy housewives cease their labors,In the courtroom no

debate,

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Work on earth is all suspended

As the King comes thro’

the gate.

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Happy faces line the hallways,

Those whose lives have been redeemed,

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Broken homes that He has mended,

Those from prison He has freed;

William J Gaither

Little children, and the aged,

Little children, and the aged,Hand in hand stand all aglow,

Hand in hand stand all aglow,

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Who were crippled, broken, ruined,

Clad in garments white as

snow.

I can hear the chariots rumble,I can hear the chariots rumble,

I can see the marching I can see the marching throng.throng.

The flurry of God’s trumpets

Spell the end of sin and wrong;

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Regal robes are now unfolding,

Heaven’s grand-stands all in place,

William J Gaither

© 1970, 1983

Heaven’s choir is now assembled,

Start to sing “Amazing Grace!”

Oh, the King is coming!The King is coming!

William J Gaither

I just heard the trumpet sounding

And now His face I see.
