Can't believe the daily news It's mostly bad its sad, but true I realize how close the end is near (mmm) The world is sinking down so low More wicked than the days of Noah Lord we need you now that much is true
[Hook] Lord you said that you would come And wipe away all tears, oh Lord (oh Lord) It's been two thousand years since you were here
[Chorus] Lord since you've been gone, everything's gone wrong Just like you said that it would do But Lord I still believe You're comin back for me To take me home to live with you Waitin day and night, for you to crack the sky We're comin to the end, tell me when Will I see you again, my Lord Tell me when, will I see you again...
[Verse 2] So many have no place to stay Our children have no place to play It's against the law to pray in school I'm waiting for the day to come when Every eye shall see the sun till Then I'm gonna do what I gotta do (ooh)
[Hook] Lord you said that you would come And wipe away all tears, oh Lord (oh Lord) It's been two thousand years since you were here...
[Chorus] Lord since you've been gone, everything's gone wrong Just like you said that it would do But Lord I still believe You're comin back for me To take me home to live with you Waitin day and night, for you to crack the sky We're comin to the end, tell me when Will I see you again, my Lord Tell me when, will I see you again...
[Bridge] You died for us, wants before Sacrificed your life upon the cross Oh Lord will you be comin in The noon day sky Or will you arrive like a thief in the night!
[Chorus] Lord since you've been gone, everything's gone wrong Just like you said that it would do But Lord I still believe You're comin back for me To take me home to live with you Waitin day and night, for you to grab the sky I know we're comin to the end, tell me when Will I see you again, my Lord Tell me when, will I see you again

[Chorus] Lord since you've been gone, everything's gone wrong Just like you said that it would do But Lord I still believe You're comin back for me To take me home to live with you Waitin day and night, for you to crack the sky Now we're comin to the end, tell me when Will I see you again, my Lord Tell me when, will I see you... Again...
