Hey, take a good look around
See so many people with their heads hanging down
Attitudes of depression take control
Negative confessions try to weight down my soul

But a voice inside reminds me
Of the good news that I know

I know things are looking up
There's no way for me to doubt it
Everybody's looking up
I can hear the people shout it
Clouds are opened up
I can hear the trumpet sound
Spirits are being lifted up
Would you look who's coming down
Coming to take me to my heavenly home

News is spreading everywhere
There's a brand new feeling of excitement in the air
Fear becomes ancient history
Chains of this world drop away, and I am set free

Well, I knew this day was coming
But it's much more than I expected it to be
I know things are looking up
There's no way for me to doubt it
Everybody's looking up
I can hear the people shout it
Clouds are opened up
I can hear the trumpet sound
Spirits are being lifted up
Would you look who's coming down
Coming to take me to my heavenly home

Clouds are opened up
I can hear the trumpet sound
Spirits are being lifted up
Would you look who's coming down
Coming to take me to my heavenly home

Things are looking up
