Sara Kendrick Poet Rhyme

The King Is Coming

The Market place 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 has been suspended
As the King comes thro' the gate
The King is coming
The King is coming
I just heard the trumpet sounding
And now his face i see
The King is coming
The King is coming
Praise God He's coming for me
Happy face line the hallway
Those whose lives have been redeemed
Broken homes that He has mended
Those from prison He's set free
Little children and the aged
Hand in hand aglow
Those who were crippled broken ruined
Clad in garments white as snow
I can hear the chariots rumble
I can see the marching throng
And the flurry of God's trumpets
Spell the end of sin and wrong
Regal robes are now unfolding
Heaven's grandstands all in place
Heaven's choir is now assembled
Start to sing Amazing Grace..Copied from the internet

Songwriters: Gloria Gaither, William J. Gaither.

Sara Kendrick April 11, 2023 at 3:12 AM Thank you, Beata. I wish I had written it but alas I did not. Thank Bill and Gloria Gaither. Sara

P.S. Awtry March 17, 2023 at 3:36 AM Yes, I remember this song! The piano’s bass notes building the tension and then the nearly thunderous chorus. Thank you for the reminder. Sara Kendrick March 17, 2023 at 5:19 AM I am glad that it sparked a memory. I hope you listen to it again or sing it again, P.S. I appreciate you dropping by and reading this one. Sara

Victor Buhagiar March 15, 2023 at 3:10 AM Riding on a donkey. Such is humility. Sara Kendrick March 15, 2023 at 6:24 AM Yes, Victor, He did ride on a donkey (one that had never been ridden and a man who had never ridden one) once, but when he comes again it won't be on a donkey. Thanks for the kind review. Sara
