Before the Last Sunset

This Classical/Country song is rooted in Matthew 16:24–28 (LSB) and shaped by a full preterist perspective, presenting Jesus’ call to discipleship within its original first-century setting. The song portrays taking up the cross as covenant faithfulness amid suffering, losing one’s life as trust in God rather than self-preservation, and the coming of the Son of Man as an imminent Kingdom event witnessed by those standing there. Drawing from Daniel 7, Psalm 44, Matthew 10, Hebrews 10, and Colossians 1, the lyrics reflect the closing of an age, judgment according to deeds, and the faithful transfer into Christ’s established reign. The classical strings emphasize the gravity of fulfillment, while the country style carries the testimony of ordinary people walking faithfully through extraordinary days. This song tells the story of a Kingdom that came as promised—seen, received, and still lived in—calling listeners to quiet obedience grounded in the finished work of Christ. Intro (soft piano / strings) He said, “Follow Me…” And the road grew quiet. Verse 1 He spoke to them along the way Dust on their feet, hearts laid bare Not promises of safer days But truth too heavy not to share “If anyone would walk with Me Let him lay himself aside Take the cross set in his path And follow where I guide” Chorus Take up your cross, don’t turn back now Lose your life—He showed us how What is the world if the soul’s not found Before the last sunset goes down Some standing there would live to see The Kingdom come in certainty Not far away, not out of sight But breaking in their lifetime Verse 2 For Your sake we were counted slain Like quiet lambs in rising pain But heaven’s court was taking place And justice came in measured grace The Son of Man was lifted high Glory placed upon His name Dominion given, rule made sure Nothing left the same Chorus Take up your cross, don’t turn back now Lose your life—He showed us how What is the world if the soul’s not found Before the last sunset goes down Some standing there would live to see The Kingdom come in certainty Not far away, not out of sight But breaking in their lifetime Verse 3 He said He’d come without delay A very little while And though the night grew dark and long The faithful stayed the trial Transferred from shadows into light A Kingdom firmly set He repaid each heart by deed No promise unmet Bridge (strings rise, gentle harmony) Not someday far beyond our days But right on time, just as He said Through fire and loss, through tear and faith The old had passed, the new was spread Those who lost their lives for Him Found the life that never ends The Shepherd kept them through the storm And gathered all His friends Final Chorus Take up your cross, don’t turn back now Lose your life—He showed us how What is the world if the soul’s not found Before the last sunset goes down Some standing there would live to see The Kingdom come in certainty The Son of Man in glory bright Before the final night Outro (quiet, resolved) Truly He said… And truly it came. We’re walking now In the light that remains.
