1.    When the trump of the great archangel,
       Its mighty tones shall sound,
       And the end of the world proclaiming,
       Shall pierce the depths profound;
       When the Son of Man shall come in His glory,
       With all the saints on high,
       What a shouting in the skies from the multitudes that rise,
       Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

                 CHORUS
    
       Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
       Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
       The trumpet shall sound, the dead shall be raised,
       Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

2.    When He comes in the clouds descending,
       And they who loved Him here,
       From their grave shall awake
       And praise Him with joy and not with fear;
       When the body and the soul are united,
       And clothed no more to die,
       What a shouting there will be when each other’s face we see,
       Changed in the twinkling of an eye.

3.    O, the seed that was sown in weakness,
       Shall then be raised in pow’r,
       And the songs of the blood-bought millions,
       Shall hail that blissful hour;
       When we gather safely home in the morning,
       And night’s dark shadows fly,
       What a shouting on the shore when we meet to part no more,
       Changed in the twinkling of an eye.
