When Jesus Comes To Take Us All Away

https://on.soundcloud.com/cwVZ1

Jesus said I'm coming back, to take my children home,
Be ready, it could be just any day.
Be looking toward the east, and listening for that sound,
When Jesus comes to take us all away.
Chorus:
When Jesus comes to take us all away,
we will bask is his presence that glorious day.
I am his forever more, as I walk that heavenly shore,
when Jesus comes to take us all away.

There will be no sorrow over yonder,
and at the master's feet, I'll surely pray.
The splendor of such a sight, there'll be no more night,
When Jesus comes to take us all away.

When Jesus comes to take us all away,
we will bask in his presence that glorious day.
I am his forever more, as I walk that heavenly shore,
when Jesus comes to take us all away.
I am his forever more, as I walk that heavenly shore,
when Jesus comes to take us all away, all away...

Ronnie, really nicely done! Super composition. Like the variation provided by your instrumental break and key modulation. You've got a great feel for arranging and performing the harmonies and BGVs in the gospel quartet style I remember from back in the day. Those were the days. THANKS for posting!

Ronnie...the best of gospel music...love the quartet harmonies...the melody is so singable and reminiscent of great old southern gospel quartet singing...your arrangement of the classic country sound is always the best...super mix...the message is timely and quintessential southern gospel!
Good old solid country music Ronnie. It reminded me of something from the old time Oak Ridge Boys or the Chuck Wagon Gang. I love this kind of music. I noticed the steel got cut short a little on the intro (at about 15 seconds or so). If you could find a way of stretching that note out or using another it might sound a little more natural. As usual, great song with a great message.

Hi Ronnie,

You hit the nail on the head with this one - instrumentally, lyrically, and vocally. I enjoyed the key modulation - the always refresh a song and breathe new life into it.

Excellent!

Take care,

Alan

Ronnie, country gospel at its absolute best.
Great harmonies that brought me back to the Hee Haw days, and that's a good thing.
Great vocal and mix with an outstanding message.
