The King Is Coming Lyrics - Wanda Jackson

THE KING IS COMING 

(Bill Gaither - Gloria Gaither - Charley Millhoff) 

'71 Gaither Music 

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 is all suspended as the King comes through the gate 

Oh the King is coming the King is coming 

I just heard the trumpets sounding and now his face I see 

Oh the King is coming the King is coming praise God he's coming for me 

Happy faces line the hallways those whose lives have been redeemed 

Broken homes e has mended those from prison he has freed 

Little children and the aged hand in hand stand all aglow 

Who were crippled broken ruined dressed in garments white as snow 

I can hear the chariots rumble I can see the marching throng 

The flurry of God's trumpets spells the end of sin and wrong 

Regal robes are now unfolding heaven's grandstand's all in place 

Heaven's choir is now assembled start to sing Amazing Grace 

Oh the King is coming the King is coming... 

Oh the King is coming the King is coming... 

(He's coming for me)
