HE'S
BEEN A LONG TIME COMING
Chorus:
HE'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING
WE'LL BE A LONG TIME GONE,
WHEN HE
COMES FOR HIS CHILDREN
TO FINALLY TAKE US HOME.
IT WILL SEEM BUT A MOMENT
WHEN
HIS FACE WE SHALL SEE,
WHEN GABRIEL SOUNDS THE TRUMPET
WE'LL SHOUT THE VICTORY.
Verse:
SOME
FOLKS SAY THE LORD'S NOT COMING
BACK TO EARTH AGAIN.
HE'S NOT COMING FOR
HIS CHILDREN
TO TAKE THEM HOME WITH HIM.
BUT MY LORD MADE A PROMISE
THAT
WE SHOULD WATCH AND PRAY
I'VE GOT GOOD NEWS FOR YOU, MY FRIEND,
IT COULD
BE TODAY.Repeat
Chorus
Verse:
THE
QUESTION IS NOT IF HE'LL COME,
THE QUESTION THEN IS WHEN.
MY FRIEND WILL
YOU BE READY
TO SPEND YOUR LIFE WITH HIM?
OR WILL YOU BE ONE OF THOSE
WHO
ARE LEFT HERE ALL ALONE?
HE'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING
BUT WE'LL BE A LONG
TIME GONE.
Repeat
Chorus

WHEN
GABRIEL SOUNDS THE TRUMPET
WE'LL SHOUT THE VICTORY.
