Grave Clothes


She bought a new dress and hung it in the closet
She planned to wear it on the day she died
She told her friends farewell, I’ll soon be parting
I plan to meet you on the other side

Then she sat down to read that old family Bible
She read the prophecy of how this world would fall
She read where John described it and she started thinking
I may not need my grave clothes after all

Chorus
All the signs of time are pointing to his coming
Just any day we could hear the trumpet call
I want to be alive at his returning
I may not need my grave clothes after all

He bought a new suit, it was his favorite color
He knew just any day  he’d have to go
He told his wife, I have the strangest feeling
I may not ever have to wear these clothes
