Caught Up (EN 5305)

1

Though we may not know the moment when our blessed Lord shall come

To receive us to mansions “over there,”

Yet we know ’twill not be long before He takes His loved ones home,

And we’re caught up to meet Him in the air.

We’ll be caught up to meet Him in the air,

We’ll be caught up His blessedness to share;

Very soon He will come

To take His people home

Caught up to meet Him in the air.

2

There are times when we are called to wade through waters deep and wide,

And the sorrows of Christ Himself to share;

We remember He has promised to be ever at our side,

Till we’re caught up to meet Him in the air.

3

Then eternal years in glory with our Savior we will spend;

O we long for that morning bright and fair!

When the days of our sojourning and our pilgrimage shall end,

We’ll be caught up to meet Him in the air.
