people every where are falling in love with this old world


I don't want to stay,
when the trumpet sounds and the saints leave the ground

I don't want to stay here

There are several slight variations to this song
Here is a composite I trust will help you remember all the lyrics

My lamps are trimmed and my fire is burning bright
So I can leave this old world, Jesus could come tonight
And I don't want to be left behind in this sinful place
So I'm watching and praying, keeping the faith
I'm running and making haste

Chorus
I know He's coming back. I know He's coming back
I don't want to stay here. I don't want to stay here.
He said He's coming back. He said He's coming back.
I don't want to stay here. I don't want to stay here.

People everywhere are falling in love with this old world
All the riches of diamonds, silver and gold
and forgetting about their souls
but as for me and mine we're going to seek the King
I'm in love with the Lord Jesus Christ
You can have this world and everything

Chorus

We're going to be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
The dead in Christ shall rise first. We're going to meet Him in the sky
When the silver trumpet sounds and the saints rise from the ground
I don't want to stay here. I don't want to stay here
