The Signal Fell

With the Lord’s hand the signal fell Do you know the time; can you tell Then comes the shout with angel’s voice There’s no more time to make the choice A trumpet blast has pierced the night And soon we’ll see the glory light At home we knew the time was near We walked prepared with no more fear Time had come and passed our way Now it’s time to end our stay Work on Earth is finally done We shall rise to meet the Son There is a feast prepared above The Marriage of the Lamb, his love Up to the clouds we all shall rise To meet the Lord high in the skies The cares of earth we leave behind God’s great blessings we shall find Reach out to God; prepare your heart For soon you’ll have a brand new start With the Bridegroom in the sky Nevermore to wonder why Old Poem: The Signal Fell For with a hand the signal fell Was it time? I could not tell And so we knew the time was near From then we walked with no more fear That time has gone; it could not stay Let in the light to show the way Bring the feast where all shall shine And carry those prepared to dine All is well, he said There’s a bridge out up ahead What we don’t know won’t matter It’s only idle chatter All is well, for angels guard the way They do their best to bless our stay
