in a coming day i will close my weary eyes
in a coming day i will leave this mortal life
in a coming day i will feel the prints in his hands
in a coming day i will see the son of man
but when that day is here and eternity seems very clear
i shall not know then any better than i know now
that he is God's almight son my redeemer the atoning one
that he lives and he shall stand one day upon this land
and i shall not know than any better than i know now in a coming day
in a coming day i will wet his feet with my tears
in a coming day in his arms he'll hold me near
in a coming day i will look into his eyes
in a coming day i will live with him on high
but when that day is here and eternity seems very clear
i shall not know then any better than i know now
that he is God's almight son my redeemer the atoning one
that he lives and he shall stand one day upon this land
and i shall not know than any better than i know now in a coming day
