YouTube video: A Trumpet Sounded Forth


Text:

The trumpet sounded forth: From the watchman on the tower:

“Amend your ways, turn back to God, Feel His redeeming power.”

The trumpet’s voice is loud and strong, It calls us to gather ‘round,

For its clear voice is warning, “Hearken to the trumpet’s sound.


A trumpet sounded forth, Calling men to arms:

Prepare yourself for battles long, Protect all from danger’s harm.

A trumpet sounded forth: “Raise the ensign high,

Rally to the Standard Bearer, Yea, to the Lord on High.”


His trumpet sounded forth, It will never call retreat:

“Go forth in faith to meet the Lord, Kneel at His judgement seat.”

A trumpet sounded forth, Proclaiming divine decree:

The Gospel is restored to earth, So all men may come to Me.


A trumpet shall sound forth, Calling all men from the grave

When resurrected souls will sing, “Hosanna to the One Who Saves!”

The trumpet sounded forth: “Prepare for the King to appear!”

With songs of joy, we await that day, “Behold! Your King is Here!”
