The marketplace 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 thro' the gate
CHORUS:
O the King is coming
The King is coming!
I just heard the trumpets sounding
And now His face I see;
O 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 that He has mended
Those from prison He has freed;
Little children and the aged
Hand in hand stand all aglow
Who were crippled, broken, ruined
Clad in garments white as snow
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 thro' the gate
CHORUS:
O the King is coming
The King is coming!
I just heard the trumpets sounding
And now His face I see;
O 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 that He has mended
Those from prison He has freed;
Little children and the aged
Hand in hand stand all aglow
Who were crippled, broken, ruined
Clad in garments white as snow
