The joyful promise of the Lord’s return has always been one of the most encouraging and hope-filled messages in the Christian faith. What a wonderful reminder it is to know that Jesus is coming again, and that His promises never fail. There is a special kind of excitement and anticipation that fills the heart when listening to songs that celebrate this truth. It lifts the spirit and turns our attention away from the challenges and uncertainties of this world, reminding us to keep our eyes fixed on the hope we have in Christ. Songs like these do more than entertain—they inspire faith, strengthen believers, and create an atmosphere of joyful expectation.

We can rejoice and sing along with the uplifting gospel classic “Soon and Very Soon,” beautifully written by Andre Crouch and powerfully performed by the well-acclaimed gospel singer Jessy Dixon. His passionate and energetic delivery captures the excitement and expectation of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in such a meaningful way. The words bring to mind the powerful testimony of Jesus to the churches in the book of Revelation: “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work.” What a glorious promise and what a blessed hope for all who believe. Hallelujah! May this song encourage hearts, renew faith, and fill everyone who listens with joy and expectation as we await His coming.

Soon and Very Soon Lyrics

Soon and very soon
We are going to see the King

Soon and very soon
We are going to see the King

Soon and very soon
We are going to see the King
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
We’re going to see the king

No more cryin there,
We are going to see the King

No more cryin there,
We are going to see the King

No more cryin there,
We are going to see the King
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
We’re going to see the King

Should there be any rivers we must cross
Should there be any mountains we must climb
God will supply all the strength that we need
Give us strength till we reach the other side.

We have come from every nation, God knows each of us by name.
Jesus shed[took] his blood and he washed my sins.
he washed them all away.
Yes there are some of us who have laid down our lives but we
all shall live again on the other side… soon and very soon.

Hallelujah
Halleljuah
We’re going to see the King!

This beautiful gospel song brings back so many wonderful memories and reminds me of the incredible blessing that was Vestal Goodman’s voice and ministry. She was truly one of the greatest female gospel singers of her generation, and there was something deeply special and heartfelt about the way she sang.

Listening to her sing always had a way of reaching beyond the melody and speaking directly to the soul, bringing comfort, joy, and a reminder of God’s goodness.

Her rendition of “What A Lovely Name” in this Bill & Gloria Gaither Homecoming Concert is such a beautiful testimony to the remarkable gift she was given and the incredible presence she brought whenever she stood before an audience. You can hear not only her talent and singing prowess, but also the faith and conviction behind every word she sang.

Praise the Lord for the life and ministry of Vestal Goodman, and may everyone who listens be uplifted, encouraged, and richly blessed.
