Its happening all around
Yet, no one can see
Blindness and eye salve and lips that spew poison
It so gradual and so sneaky that it creeps right in
Then one day before you know it your complacent
Sin has reigned in your heart
But the King of Kings is coming back again

Its frightening to hear the news of disease, war and hunger
Storms that brew lightening and thunder, tornadoes and quakes
The earth cries out and the earth spits up
They bow down to the goddess of old
And the maker of heaven waits because He is merciful and true
He wishes none be lost but time is drawing near
The King of Kings is coming back again

Distracted by CSI and a new movie out on DVD, you close your eyes to its warning
You have shut the door of alarm
And children arent able to be children
Their minds have been infected by computers, sex, and wanting to numb all
A mother carries her infant
A father carries not its name
And all along the streets the homeless have no face
He is preparing a banquet and yet no one has time
But the King Of Kings is coming back again


When will you open it?
Its been laying there all along
blow off the dust and crack it
Say a prayer that you can see
Pray that you can hear it before the door is shut and locked
He is knocking oh so softly
But the television is so loud and theres a text beeping in on your cell phone and a message in your mail
The virgins have their lamps but their oil has run out
And the King Of kings is coming with a mighty shout!

The church has grown sleepy and they snore oh so loud
An angel hovers over the congregation and sounds a trumpet in their ears
The clock is almost midnight and your bride clothes have become soiled
Oh when will you listen?
Awake you sons and daughters for the time is ever near
Open his word
Bow your head, bend your feeble knees
Strengthen what remains
He is coming in the clouds and every eye will see
