Legacy Five - Strike Up The Band Lyrics

Chorus
Strike up the band, that angel band, assembled now and ready

To proclaim heaven's praises to the King

That music's planned, prepared for those who come by way of Calvary

It's a song that the angels cannot sing

The redeemed of all the ages will be there to sing along

On a brand new song never heard by mortal man

Oh, I'm longing for the day when we hear King Jesus say

"Welcome to the Promised Land, strike up the band"

Verse 1
We are living near the Book of Revelation

From the things we see, we know the time is near

Soon the trumpet blast will start the celebration

We will hear the shout from heaven, loud and clear

Chorus
Verse 2
I can just imagine David as he's playing

Some sweet song about the Risen Holy One

We will make the heavens ring with happy praises

To God the Father, God the Spirit, God the Son

God the Son

Chorus

Oh, I'm longing for the day when we hear King Jesus say

"Welcome to the Promised Land

Strike up the band, strike up the band, strike up the band"
