The Last Trumpet

In silence the heavens are holding their breath
The scrolls are sealed, the hour is set
From the throne of fire, a voice will rise
The end of ages before our eyes

Kings and kingdoms built on sand
Empires fall by mortal hands
The earth trembles, the sky turns red
The living fear, the dead forget

Prophets cried through dust and pain
Their words were carved in blood and flame
Now the time has come at last
No more future, no more past

Hear the echo through the skies
Angels stand, the judged arise
What was written will be done
The final war has just begun

The last trumpet calls the dead
Graves awake, the living tremble
Time collapses, chains are broken
Every knee before the throne

The last trumpet shakes the land
Flesh and bone turn dust and glory
Death is swallowed, light ascends
Iron throne, eternal reign

Seven seals, the scroll unfolds
Truth revealed, no lies to hold
Fire rains from shattered skies
No place left for those who hide

The proud will fall, the meek will rise
Written names before his eyes
The lamb stands clothed in light
The dragon fades into the night

From the east to setting Sun
The gathered saints, the chosen ones
A thousand years or endless days
The king returns in holy blaze

The last trumpet calls the dead
Graves awake, the living tremble
Time collapses, chains are broken
Every knee before the throne

No more tears, no more pain
No more curse, no more chains
The former world has passed away
Behold, the dawn of endless day

I saw the throne, I heard the sound
Like raging seas, like sacred ground
Worthy is the lamb who reigns
Forever crowned, forever praised

The last trumpet splits the sky
Mortal flesh meets immortal fire
Death is done, the war is won
The kingdom come, thy will be done

From the ashes we shall rise
Clothed in light before his eyes
Iron throne above all kings
Eternal life, the song we sing

It is finished
The trumpet has spoken
