The King Is Coming
by Heritage Singers

Album: Vintage Collection

All the marketplace is empty,
No more traffic in the streets.
All the builders' tools are silent,
No more time to harvest wheat.
Busy housewives cease their labors,
In the courtroom, no debate.
Work on earth is all suspended,
As the King comes through the gate.

Oh, the King is coming!
The King is coming!
I just heard the trumpet sounding,
And now his face I see.
Oh, the King is coming!
The King is coming!
Praise God, He's coming for me!

Happy faces line the hallways,
Those whose lives have been redeemed.
Broken homes that he has mended,
Those from prison he has freed.
Little children, and the aged, hand in hand stand all aglow,
Who were crippled, broken, ruined,
Now they're clad in garments white as snow.

I can hear the chariots rumble,
I can see the marching throng.
The flurry of God's trumpets,
Spell the end of sin and wrong.
Regal robes are now enfolding,
Heavens grandstand's all in place.
Heaven's choir is now assembled,
Start to sing, Amazing Grace!

Oh, the King is coming!
The King is coming!
I just heard the trumpet sounding,
And now his face I see.
Oh, the King is coming!
The King is coming,
Praise God, Praise God, Praise God, He's coming for me!
