Looking at the future
Who can tell you what is going on
It seems we have become
A generation of wars and bombs

And the heart grows weak
And the fear grows strong
But the day may come
And it may not be very long
And you want to run
But you don't know where
So where do you go
I know

Chorus:
    And I tell you
    I am sure there will be a day
    But it will not be like the nations say
    The Lord will come
    When this life is through
    And His deep desire is to be with you

    Hearts will fly
    When the new world starts
    And joy will rise
    Like the morning star
    God will meet every cry of the heart
    And it's my prayer
    I want you to be there

I like to think about the new creation
Things that God will do
So every now and then I stop and close my eyes
I enjoy the view

And the heart grows strong
Abd the fear grows weak
And I can not wait
For the new world to come to me
And while I dream
Oh, I'll pray for you
'Cause He wants you to know,
I know

Chorus
Chorus

I am sure
That the Lord will come
I am sure
That his deep desire is to be with you

He wants you to be there

I am sure
That the Lord will come
I am sure
That his deep desire is to be with you
