The King is Coming

Intro: G D  - Video below will be updated to reflect the chords.


                  G                                    C
The marketplace is empty, no more traffic in the street
D                                                  C                     D             G  D
All the builder's tools are silent, no more time to harvest wheat
                 G                                     C
Busy housewives cease their labor, in the courtroom no debate
               D                                                C                  D                G   
Work on earth has been suspended as the King comes through the gate




Chorus:
        G                       C
The King is coming, the King is coming
         D                                               C            D             G
I just heard the trumpet sounding and His face soon I'll see
        G                       C
The King is coming, the King is coming
            D          C          D      G  D
Praise God, He's coming for me


           G                                           C
Happy faces line the hallway, those whose lives have been redeemed
            D                                                      C        D         G
Broken homes He has mended, those from prison He has freed
            G                        C
Little children and the aged hand in hand stand all a-glow
                  D                                                  C            G            G
Who were crippled, broken, ruined, clad in garments white as snow

         G                                                C
I can hear the chariot's rumble, I can see the marching throng
              D                                                 C        D          G   
And the fury of God's trumpet spells the end of sin and wrong
           G                                                 C
Regal rolls are now unfolded, heaven's grandstands all in place
               D                                                C              D       G    
Heaven's choir is now assembled, start to sing "Amazing Grace"



Chorus:
        G                       C
The King is coming, the King is coming
         D                                               C            D             G
I just heard the trumpet sounding and His face soon I'll see
        G                       C
The King is coming, the King is coming
            D          C          D      G  D
Praise God, He's coming for me


          D       C   D                 G F#/Em
Praise God, He's coming for me
          D       C   D                  C     Cm           G                 
Praise God, He's coming for me, for me, for me
