Revelation of the Rapture makes miracles seem tame,
A billion souls to capture because of Jesus Name...
To raise the dead who sleep in Christ... then those alive on Earth,
Not just a few God highly prized... because they proved their worth...
The Lord decides the day, the hour... the second we must leave,
With one almighty sign of power... believers to retrieve...
And when it's come and when it's done... the doubters may still doubt,
While we're all gone and with God's Son... for we've been taken out...

I envy no-one left behind... with all their cares and woes,
The remnant there, of all Mankind, despite the love we chose...
For we believed God sacrificed His one and only child,
That each of us could be baptised... in His Name, reconciled...
If only revelation brought a billion more and yet...
The doubters didn't spare a thought they'd face such great regret...
No share of love, or joy, or peace... No chance of Christ's caress...
No crown of gold for such as these... No robe of righteousness...
