Reuben Kigame's song encourages the church, described as the holy bride, to take heart and rejoice because the wedding feast of Christ is near. It acknowledges present hardships, darkness, and fear but urges believers to look forward to the morning light and open gates. The lyrics speak hope to those who have lost their will, the lonely preacher, the hungry, and the brokenhearted, assuring them they can make it through the night. The bridge quotes Jesus saying He is coming soon with rewards, calling for readiness. The song is a message of perseverance and anticipation of Christ's return.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Take heart holy Bride

The wedding feast is drawing near

Hard-pressed from every side

But please wipe away your tears.

Yes it is getting dark and wild

And the storms may make you fear

Soon you?ll see the morning light

And the gates shall open wide

Hear the songs and feel the cheer.


Chorus

So I say rejoice

Let your music never die

I can hear a distant voice


There is hope in the skies;

Again I say rejoice

Your salvation draweth nigh

Please ignore the passing noise

Stop asking why o why.


I sing this song for everyone 

Who has lost the will to stand

For the preacher all alone

And for every music band.

For the hungry and the tired

Everyone with a broken heart

Get up now and wear a smile

You can make it through the night

The wedding feast is about to start.


Bridge.

Behold I?m coming soon

And my reward is with me

To give to everyone

According to what he has done

So get ready

Jesus says.
