I find it hard
To keep in mind
Things I cannot see
The world comes crowding
To my eyes
Will not go away

Tripping over
Bits and pieces
Rumble of my life
Carrying such a heavy load
Should be travelling light

And yet the signs
And written on
This page of history
And everyday's
Another day closer to that day

Like a thief in the night
He's coming
Like a blinding flash
Of lightning
Sure enough
Jesus comin' back
Jesus comin' back
It's only one life
It's not a lot
And there's never time in hand
But if time seems short
Well there's time enough
For all that He's got planned

And now the world
Suffers pains of birth
A New age on its way
And remember everything we have
Will pass through the fire
All those worthless things
Will pass away

Like a thief in the night
He's coming
Like a blinding flash
Of lightning
Sure enough
Jesus comin' back
Jesus comin' back...
