Dec 2, 2019 · For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first (1 Thess 4:16). The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet; he will march in the storms of the south (Zech 9:14).
The thematic material behind the song comes from prophetic-apocalyptic passages in the Bible, especially 1 Thessalonians 4.16: For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first.
