G C G D

[Verse 1]
     G                                C        D      G
As I wake up with the morning of each day that passes by

      G             Em             C D
And I listen to the sounds upon my ears

        G               C     G          C       G
I can't help but keep a watch toward the Eastern sky

      Em            C                   D                 G
And I wonder if the trumpet will be the next sound that I hear

[Chorus]
       G         C           G       D    G
What a beautiful day for the Lord to come again

       G         C              G                 D
What a beautiful day for Him to take His children home

      G       C       G           C         Em           D
How I long to see His face and to touch His nail scarred hands

       G         C           D            G
What a beautiful day for the Lord to come again


[Verse 2]
       G       C     G                D           G
All my earthly disappointments and my trials here below

     Em        C                   Am   D
Fade away when I remember His last words

        G    C          G           C             G
He said He'd return and recieve His children unto Him

        Em         C             D          G
And I'm longing to look upon the face of my Lord


[Chorus]
       G         C           G       D    G
What a beautiful day for the Lord to come again

       G         C              G                 D
What a beautiful day for Him to take His children home

      G       C       G           C         Em           D
How I long to see His face and to touch His nail scarred hands

       G         C           D            G
What a beautiful day for the Lord to come again

      G       C       G           C         Em           D
How I long to see His face and to touch His nail scarred hands

       G         C           D            G
What a beautiful day for the Lord to come again

C D  G
Come again
