1THESSALONIANS – The Dead Shall Rise First by Bro H

Verse 1 I would not have you unaware Concerning those who sleep That you sorrow not as others do Who have no hope to keep For if we believe that Jesus died And rose again that day Even those who sleep in Him God will bring with Him, we say Verse 2 For this we say by the word of the Lord We who are alive remain Shall not go before those who sleep At the calling of His name For the Lord Himself shall descend With a shout from heaven above With the voice of the archangel And the trumpet call of God Chorus The Lord Himself comes down With the trumpet and the call The dead in Christ rise first At the sound that wakes them all Then we who remain stand At the brightness of His coming Together with the risen Forever with the Lord Verse 3 Of the times and seasons, brethren You have no need I write For the day of the Lord will come Like a thief in the night When they say peace and safety Sudden destruction falls As travail upon a woman And escape escapes them all Verse 4 But you are not in darkness That day should overtake You are children of the light Children of the day, awake We are not of night nor darkness So let us watch and stand Putting on faith, love, and hope With truth in heart and hand Bridge God has not appointed us to wrath But to obtain salvation Through the Lord who died for us Our hope and expectation Whether we wake or sleep in Him We shall live together still Comfort one another now And stand within His will Chorus The Lord Himself comes down With the trumpet and the call The dead in Christ rise first At the sound that wakes them all Then we who remain stand At the brightness of His coming Together with the risen Forever with the Lord
