Words & Music: Mike Hudson and Michael W. Smith

Looking at the future

Who can tell you what is going on

It seems we have become the generation

Of wars and bombs

And the heart grows weak

And the fear grows strong

That the day may come and it may not be very long

And you want to run

But you don't know where

So where do you go

I know

And I tell you

Chorus:

I am sure there will be a day

But it will not be like the nations say

The Lord will come when this life is through

And His deep desire is to be with you

Hearts will fly when the new world starts

And joy will rise like the morning star

God will meet every cry of the heart

And it's my prayer

I want you to be there

I like to think about the new creation

Things that God will do

So every now and then I stop and close my eyes

I enjoy the view

And the heart grows strong

And the fear grows weak

And I cannot wait for the new world to come to me

And while I dream

Oh, I pray for you

'Cause He wants you to go

I know

And I tell you

Chorus
