BEFORE THE COMING LORD
(from I Chronicles 16:31-36)

All of creation is excited at the Lord's return

Let the heavens be glad
            G          D
Let the earth rejoice

Let the oceans roar
            A 
Let the field make noise

               D                D7             G
Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy
    A                        D
Before the coming Lord   (repeat verse)

And let them say among the nations
        D
        "THE LORD REIGNS"
