There is soon to be a meet­ing
With our Sav­ior in the air,
For He’s gone to realms of glo­ry,
There our man­sions to pre­pare;
He is com­ing back to meet us,
With a host of an­gels fair,
And there’s sure to be some shout­ing
When we all meet there.

Refrain

When we all meet there,
At the meet­ing in the air,
There is sure to be some shout­ing
When we all meet there;
When we all meet there,
At the meet­ing in the air,
There is sure to be some shout­ing
When we all meet there.

See the pa­tri­archs and pro­phets
Coming forth from burst­ing tombs,
They are com­ing to this meet­ing,
And they’re com­ing ve­ry soon;
There comes Ab­ra­ham and Is­aac,
With their kin­dred ev­ery­where,
There is sure to be some shout­ing
When we all get there.

Refrain

There is Mos­es from Mount Ne­bo,
There is Da­ni­el from the Cave,
They are march­ing in the fore­front,
While the hosts their ban­ners wave;
O what joy to see them com­ing,
To the meet­ing in the air!
There is sure to be some shout­ing
When they all get there.

Refrain

Still they ga­ther, see them com­ing,
From the mis­sion fields afar,
With the pil­grims from all na­tions,
And the mar­tyrs in the war;
See St. Paul, the great apos­tle,
In his robes made white and fair,
I am sure there’ll be some shout­ing
When they all get there.

Refrain

Are you rea­dy for the meet­ing
With our Sav­ior in the air?
If your heart is pure and ho­ly,
You will be no stran­ger there;
He is com­ing soon, my bro­ther,
With a host of an­gels fair,
And I’m sure there’ll be some shout­ing
When we all meet there.
