The Cyber Hymnal ‎#7916

7916. After Awhile

1 After awhile the trump will sound,
To wake the nations underground,
After awhile, after awhile;
After awhile the Lord will come
To call His faithful children home,
After awhile, after awhile.

2 After awhile we all shall stand,
For recompense at God’s right hand,
After awhile, after awhile;
Accepted of the Lord we’ll be,
To reign with Him eternally,
After awhile, after awhile.

3 Then from His presence will be sent,
Those who of sin did not repent,
After awhile, after awhile;
For such in Heav’n there is no room,
Banished from God will be their doom,
After awhile, after awhile.
