E        A                                E                  A
When the trump of the great archangel Its mighty tones shall sound,
 E       A                       D                                E
And the end of the world proclaiming, Shall pierce the depths profound,
E         A                D          A            E                A
When the Son of man shall come in his Glory, with all the saints on high,
 A                            A7         D
What a shouting in the skies from the multitudes that rise,
 A              E              A
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.


[Chorus]
A                              D
Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
D7              E
Changed in the twinkling of an eye;
    A
The trumpet shall sound,
    D               E
The dead shall be raised,
E                              A
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.


[Verse 2]
E        A                                  E                   A
When He comes in the clouds descending, and they who loved Him here,
E          A                      D                                E
From there graves shall awake and praise Him with joy and not with fear,
 E       A              D        A          E                 A
When the body and the soul are united, And clothed no more to die,
A                              A7        D
What a shouting there will be when each other's face we see,
A              E              A
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.


[Chorus]
A                              D
Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
D7              E
Changed in the twinkling of an eye;
    A
The trumpet shall sound,
    D               E
The dead shall be raised,
E                              A
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.


[Verse 3]
 E      A                                   E                 A
O the seed that was sown in weakness Shall then be raised in pow'r,
 E       A                        D                                 E
And the songs of the blood-bought millions Shall hail that blissful hour;
 E      A             D           A            E                    A
When we gather safely home in the morning, And night's dark shadows fly,
 A                            A7     D
What a shouting on the shore when we meet to part no more,
 A              E              A
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.


[Chorus]
A                              D
Changed in the twinkling of an eye,
D7              E
Changed in the twinkling of an eye;
    A
The trumpet shall sound,
    D               E
The dead shall be raised,
E                              A
Changed in the twinkling of an eye.
