"ACROSS THE SKY"

Intro:
We'll ride across the sky
[Across the sky, 'cross the sky]
We'll ride across the sky
[Across the sky, 'cross the sky]

Pictures on movie screens,
Stories in magazines
Tell of invaders from space;
What they think they're imagining
Soon will be happening
To their own human race.
They won't be from Mars
Or some distant star,
But from the Kingdom of God's only Son;
Not flying in saucers,
But riding on horses is
How these invaders will come.

Chorus:
We'll ride across the sky,
On white horses we're gonna fly;
The forces of Heaven
Will ride His creation,
What a magnificent sight!
We'll ride across the sky
On white horses we're gonna fly;
The forces of Heaven,
The greatest invasion
Will conquer the Earth and the
Darkness will flee from the light!

These alien forces
On Heavenly horses
Are coming to right every wrong;
To bring to an end
All the evil that men
Have brought on the Earth for so long.
No earthly battalion
Can stop the great stallions
As they descend from above;
No nuclear weapon
Directed at Heaven
Can stop this great army of love!

Chorus:
We'll ride across the sky,
On white horses we're gonna fly;
The forces of Heaven
Will ride His creation,
What a magnificent sight!
We'll ride across the sky,
On white horses we're gonna fly;
The forces of Heaven,
The greatest invasion
Will conquer the Earth
And the darkness will flee.

[Repeat first chorus]

We'll ride across the sky
[Across the sky 'cross the sky]
We'll ride across the sky
[Across the sky, 'cross the sky]
We'll ride across the sky
[Across the sky, 'cross the sky]
