I'll Soon Be Gone by Diplomats

I'll Soon Be Gone
The Diplomats

We are living in perilous times, each day brings new distress
But, God has told us in His word, to pray and do our best
To keep our lamps all trimmed and bright, our wedding garments on
And something moving in my soul says child you'll soon be gone

Chorus
I'll soon be gone from this old world
To Heaven's home eternal joys to know
So without fear I'll wait to hear the angel's trumpet call
And on that day I'll soar away, oh, yes I'll soon be gone

Well, soon the crumbling works of man will all be counted lost
And those who build upon the sand must pay the awful cost
So why not kneel and pray today the spirit leads us on
Well, then with the saved you too can say praise God I'll soon be gone
