A Poem - The Coming Kingdom
2,000 years has come and gone, and we lift our heads on high
Awaiting the Savior to return, our redemption draweth nigh
When He comes, this age will end, the church will defy the ground
A raptured resurrected church, with glory rushing around
Earth's final gasp will usher forth with the coming evil realm
The final rebellion, predicted to be set with satan at the helm
The church meanwhile in glorious bliss will stand to give account
The failures of life will burn away and Christ's work will amount
She will be prepared as a glorious bride to wed her loving Lord
For Christ will had gathered His chosen ones to be in one accord
Then comes wrath, the cosmos shakes, the earth a darkened mass
Quaking, shaking, fearsome sounds, Christ is coming fast
Hording armies will raise their swords to fight the Eternal King
With one swipe of His terrible sword their sudden defeat will ring
The Kingdom Age, a millennium long, Christ will reign supreme
With Satan bound and Israel restored the Kingdom will certainly gleam
The Kingdom will close, Satan released for a final attempt to rebel
To lead a final war against the King, with nations
choosing hell
The Final Judgment commences, unbelievers raised to
contempt
Sadness swells, tears are wiped from saints who are exempt
Heaven and earth will be made anew, Christ and His church shall be
The glorious saints, in resurrected form will praise Him eternally
A raptured resurrected church, with glory rushing around
Earth's final gasp will usher forth with the coming evil realm
The final rebellion, predicted to be set with satan at the helm
The church meanwhile in glorious bliss will stand to give account
The failures of life will burn away and Christ's work will amount
She will be prepared as a glorious bride to wed her loving Lord
For Christ will had gathered His chosen ones to be in one accord
Then comes wrath, the cosmos shakes, the earth a darkened mass
Quaking, shaking, fearsome sounds, Christ is coming fast
Hording armies will raise their swords to fight the Eternal King
With one swipe of His terrible sword their sudden defeat will ring
The Kingdom Age, a millennium long, Christ will reign supreme
With Satan bound and Israel restored the Kingdom will certainly gleam
The Kingdom will close, Satan released for a final attempt to rebel
To lead a final war against the King, with nations
choosing hell
The Final Judgment commences, unbelievers raised to
contempt
Sadness swells, tears are wiped from saints who are exempt
Heaven and earth will be made anew, Christ and His church shall be
The glorious saints, in resurrected form will praise Him eternally
