Christ Has Claimed His Bride


I hear the wings of angels
Stirring to unfold
See trumpet pressed to lips
Ringing blast on hold

I see the great white throne
Angels gathered round
Awaiting the King to rise
The trumpet blast to sound

The Father’s voice is heard
Son; arise and go
Claim the ones you washed
Whiter than the snow

Heaven’s gates are opening
Slowly swinging wide
Jesus astride the clouds
Coming for His bride

Wings of angels catch the air
Unfolded now at last
The sound of Jesus coming
In the trumpet blast

Saints of every age are there
Meeting in the sky
Changed now and glorified
In twinkle of the eye

Heavens gates are closing
Banquet table inside
A wedding party in Glory
Christ has claimed His bride
