Something In The Air…

I grew up in a Pentecostal home in the 70’s during a time that the Lanny Wolfe Trio was prominent part of Pentecostal music.  I used to listen to the records we had over and over again.  I knew some of them by heart.  One of them came to mind today and I thought that I would share it.  My son tells me almost every day, “Mommy, may be today Jesus will come and take us to heaven.” or “Mommy, today may be Jesus will have Gabriel blow the trumpet.”  This song reflects that anticipation.

Verse 1

The whispering winds seem to softly say, there’s something different about today.  I wonder what can it be?  The flowers lift their heads so high.  As if to see something in the sky. I wonder what can it be?  There’s something in the air.  I can feel it everywhere.  I know that there’s something in the air.

Chorus

Could it be that this would be the day that starts eternity the day that we’ve been waiting for so long.  Could it be that yet today, the King of kings would turn and say, pick up that trumpet, blow it loud and strong.  Could it be the soul in me and sense that soon it will be free, is that my soul that’s telling me, to look up in the sky and see.  There’s something in the air.  I can feel it everywhere.  I know there’s something in the air.

Verse 2

Why do my feet feel so light today.  As if they want to fly away. I wonder what can it be.  My heart is light and my soul is gay.  Just like a bride on her wedding day. I wonder what can it be.  There’s something in the air. I can feel it everywhere.  I know there’s something in the air.

We have heard it for years…Jesus is coming.  And yet, we have been lulled to sleep by time.  We get so used to living our lives day in and day out without that anticipation of Him coming back.  The Word of God says that we do not know the day nor the hour when He will come…BUT, we know that He WILL come.  I teach my kids that we need to live our lives every day as if we are expecting Him to come back at any moment.  I want to be ready…waiting with anticipation and excitement.  Can you feel it?  There is a change in the air!  There is just something different….Jesus is coming soon!  ♥
