Looking at the future who can tell you what is going on
It seems we have become the generation of wars and bombs
And the heart grows weak and the fear grows strong
That the day may come and it may not be very longAnd you want to run but you don't know where
So where do you go, I know and I tell youI 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 youHearts 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 thereI 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 and the fear grows weak
And I cannot wait for the new world to come to meAnd while I dream oh, I pray for you
'Cause he wants you to go, I know and I tell youI 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 youHearts 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 thereI 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 youHearts will fly when the new world starts
And joy will rise like the morning star
Oh God will meet every cry of the heart
And it's my prayer, I want you to be thereI am sure that the Lord will come
I am sure and 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 and his deep desire is to be with you
