A Glory Cloud is Forming

A glory cloud is forming o'er the peoples of the earth,
Over those who love their Saviour and have had a second birth.
The glory shines around them and has formed a robe of white,
A shield and glowing armour, a bright and shining light.

The light is God's own presence living in each precious one
The light of Christ's anointing, the glory of the Son.
Shekinah glory is the crown, the crown upon each head,
The glory, crowning glory, of the living and the dead.

The Bride has been anointed, she's waiting for her groom
Her glory robe protecting her from Satan's power and doom.
She's now about to rise above, all spotless, pure and clean,
What a sight you soon will see--it ne'er before has been.

The cloud is getting thicker now as more join in array
They're like a mighty army getting ready for the Day.
The glory cloud is round each one, and also dwells within,
Jesus' cross has cut a door right through their wall of sin.

The invitation still goes out to all and anyone
Who'll answer "yes" and quickly dress to meet God's only Son.
The glory cloud will then be theirs in which to rise above
To meet the blessed Saviour, the King of peace and love.
