v.1
Everyday they wonder, how do we press on
Many people are confounded as we keep on singing a happy song
The life of faith is a mystery to the wisest man
But all is great … When you’re doing life on Heavens plan
I’m gonna keep believing my Bible line by line
I know the ending I’m leaving this world behind
I’m leaving this world behind
C
I’m keeping my eyes … on the Eastern sky
Watching and waiting with my faith in one Jesus Christ
I lift up my heart there is no fear or dread
Standing on the promise that He brought us when the Master said
Someday I’ll fly away
v.2
I am not constrained by a temporary plan
I am trusting the eternal one and resting in His righteous hand
I cannot be moved from the fortress from the mighty tower
I have been rescued by the blood, the wonder working power
By grace I’m standing, His Spirit stands in me
By faith I’m planning a marvelous destiny a marvelous destiny
