Not Long Now

Shortly this world we’ll leave below
We’ll rise and dwell the new
Leaving behind the things we know
The foolishness we knew

For by God’s grace The Truth is ours
We’ve love beyond compare
Through Jesus’ blood tremendous powers
And endless life to share

We’ve lived by faith and not by sight
We’ve trusted in God’s word
We’ll soon receive with robes of white
What no one’s seen or heard

Through wisdom in our Saviour’s hand
His knowledge we can trust
His promises will always stand
When all else turns to dust

Soon far beyond our worldly cares
We’ll join the mighty throng
In answer to our many prayers
We’ll sing the victor’s song

We’ll see the rest Salvation’s kissed
Those blessed by David’s Root
We’ll see The Tree that Adam missed
And eat His wondrous fruit

When death to Christ has bent its knee
The dead will rise up whole
The lame will walk the blind will see
Perfect in heart and soul

We’ll see our Saviour’s wondrous face
Within the realm of light
As Groom and bride we’ll take our place
With not a tear in sight
