In the Twinkling of An Eye

When the whip comes down
My mind snaps and my body aches,
for a Blessed relief

In the twinkling of an eye,
 we shall be changed,
into the One that lives forever and ever

Pain and suffering left in a box,
 on earth’s shallow core

Holy is the day of our transformation

Righteous is the One that performs
The miracle of Salvation

In a real world in a not so distant
Future
He lives within us now

Heed the sign of the times.
Heed this present darkness
