Misc Praise Songs – 1 Thessalonians (Guitar)

C                           G
But I do not want you to be ignorant,

           F
brethren, concerning those

C                                  F
lest you sorrow as others who have no hope.

C
For if we believe that Jesus died and

F                C
rose again, even so God will bring with Him

                   F
those who sleep in Jesus.

                                          G
For this we say to you by the word of the Lord,

                F                G         C             F
that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord

C                        F             C
will by no means precede those who are asleep.

C                         F
For the Lord Himself will descend

     C
from heaven with a shout,

                     G
with the voice of an archangel,

             C
and with the trumpet of God.

        F
Hear it sounding loud and clear,

            G
He's coming soon.

C       F                        G
And the dead in Christ will rise first.

C                         G
Then we who are alive and remain shall be

F         C
caught up together with them in the clouds

            F           G
to meet the Lord in the air.

    C                       F      C           F
And thus we shall, we shall always be with the Lord.

             G           C
We'll always be with the Lord

F                     G            C
Therefore comfort one another with these words.
