The actual words of the refrain are (although I *love* your version
better!):
Jesus is coming soon, morning or night or noon,
Many will meet their doom, trumpets will sound;
All of the dead shall rise, righteous meet in the skies,
Going where no one dies, heavenward bound.

Hope this helps. It comes from the Stamps/Baxter Southern Gospel tradition
so any songbook/hymnal from that tradition would be your best bet. (From
those in the Church of Christ tradition I know it's in *Songs of the Church*
and *Songs of Faith and Praise* (both Howard)).
Yours in Him,
Alan
