Atlanta Homecoming
Some glad morning we shall see, Jesus in the air,
Coming after you and me, joy is ours to share,
What rejoicing there will be, when the saints shall rise,
Headed for that jubilee, yonder in the skies.
Oh what singing, oh what shouting – shouting,
Oh what glory, Glory Hallelujah,
When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies.
When with all that heavenly host, we begin to sing,
Singing in the Holy Ghost, how the heavens will ring,
Millions there will join the song, with them we shall be,
Praising Christ through ages long, heaven's jubilee.
Oh what singing, oh what shouting – shouting,
On that happy morning when we all shall rise,
Oh what glory, Glory Hallelujah,
When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies.
Oh what singing, oh what shouting – shouting,
On that happy morning when we all shall rise,
Oh what glory, Glory Hallelujah,
When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies.
Oh what singing, oh what shouting - shouting,
On that happy morning when we all shall rise,
Oh what glory, Glory Hallelujah,
When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies.

Rising for that jubilee that is just ahead
In the twinkling of an eye changed with them to be
All the living saints to fly to that jubilee

Man i love this song and i cant wait for that meeting in the air when all the saved of earth will be called up to meet Jesus, our Lord and savior, one day there will be no hurt, no death, no suffering. Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Looking forward to meeting all yall who are saved
