Quicker
than a man can blink his eye,
Faster than a rocket could be made to fly,
More sudden than lightning
cuts through the sky,
Will be the coming of our Lord.
Everything will change in a moment's time,
A flash of the earth and the
sea and sky,
The elements rushing to join in the flight,
In the final day of our Lord.
A split second, we will shed mortality
Death will be swallowed
up in victory
Split second,
we'll embrace eternity
All the time it's gonna take
All the time it's gonna take
A split second
Trumpets will announce resurrection morn
The groom will return for his bride adorned
A sweeping fulfillment of promises sworn
On the glorious day of our Lord
Swiftly our bodies will change and delight
The mystery when flesh and
celestial unite
Explosions of splendor make
the heavens ignite
With the coming of our Lord
A split second, we will shed mortality
Death will be
swallowed up in victory
Split second, we'll embrace eternity
All the time it's gonna take
All the time it's gonna take
A split second, we will shed mortality
Death will be swallowed
up in victory
Split second,
we'll embrace eternity
All the time it's gonna take
All the time it's gonna take
A split second
A split second
We will shed mortality
Death will be swallowed up in victory
A split second
We'll embrace eternity
All the time it's gonna take
All the time it's gonna take
So split second,
we'll embrace eternity
Split second, we'll embrace eternity
Split second
