1. Behold, I show, I show you all a mystery;
We shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed.
In just a while, the twinkling of an eye you'll see,
The trumpet shall sound, and we shall all be raised.
?
Refrain:
But thanks to God, Who giveth us the victory
Through Christ the Lord, Eternal, Living One.
Always abound and do the work He's given me,
Beloved of God and Christ, His chosen sons.
?
2. O death, O grave, where is your sting, your victory?
The sting of death is sin, defined by law.
And when this mortal puts on immortality,
The trumpet shall sound, rejoice for ever more.
