What A Day That Will Be


On my drive to work in the morning, I often listen to Turning Point and Power Point as I travel. This month has been especially good with Dr. David Jeremiah going through Daniel and Dr. Jack Graham going through Revelation. They dovetail together quite nicely and its like getting both the ABC’s and XYZ’s of prophecy. This morning, as I am listening to the passage on us being the Bride of Christ and Him returning for us, a song I had not thought about in a long time popped into my head. It was the old hymn, “What A Day That Will Be” written by Jim Hill.

If you do not know this song, here are the lyrics:

There is coming a day,
When no heart aches shall come,
No more clouds in the sky,
No more tears to dim the eye,
All is peace forever more,
On that happy golden shore,
What a day, glorious day that will be.

What a day that will be,
When my Jesus I shall see,
And I look upon His face,
The One who saved me by His grace;
When He takes me by the hand,
And leads me through the Promised Land,
What a day, glorious day that will be.

There’ll be no sorrow there,
No more burdens to bear,
No more sickness, no pain,
No more parting over there;
And forever I will be,
With the One who died for me,
What a day, glorious day that will be.

What a day that will be,
When my Jesus I shall see,
And I look upon His face,
The One who saved me by His grace;
When He takes me by the hand,
And leads me through the Promised Land,
What a day, glorious day that will be

Indeed, it will a glorious day. Whether I go to Him or He comes for me doesn’t matter. On that day when I see Jesus nothing else will matter. I am ready to see Him, are you?
