Years of time have come and gone Since I first heard it told How Jesus would come again some day If back then it seemed so real Then I just can’t help but feel How much closer His coming is today Signs of the times are every--where There’s a brand new feeling in the air Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky Lift up your head redemption draweth nigh Wars and strife on every hand And violence fills the land Still some people doubt He’ll ever come again But the Word of God is true He’ll redeem His chosen few Don’t lose hope soon Christ Jesus will descend
