Behold I Tell You A Mystery

Behold I tell you a mystery
Behold I tell you a mystery
We shall not all sleep
But we shall all be changed
In a moment in a twinkling of an eye
In a moment in a twinkling of an eye

For the last trumpet shall sound
And the dead shall be raised incorruptible
And we shall be changed
We shall be changed

Death is swallow’d up in victory
Death is swallow’d up in victory
O death where is your sting
The sting of death is sin
But thanks be to God who gives us victory
Through Jesus Christ our Lord
