VERSE 1
Time is a thief that steals away
The things that matter most
The ones they love are gone too soon
They’re young and then they’re old
When it seems like only memories
Are all that they have left
We can share the hope God promises
In what is coming next…
CHORUS
What’s coming next
Is a heav’nly home – with Jesus
In a land of no more sorrow, pain or death
No more good-byes
Tears are wiped away – forever
Joyful songs of praise are heard on ev’ry breath…
Yeah, even though they can’t see it now….
That’s what’s coming next
VERSE 2
Now they wake up with aches and pains
Their strength is almost gone
Their life’s not what it used to be
(But) their journey isn’t done
Every tri-al will be worth it all
(For) the joy that lies ahead
If they hold on to God’s promises
Of what is coming next…
CHORUS
CHORUS
What’s coming next
Is a heavenly home with Jesus
In a land of no more sorrow, pain or death
No more good-byes
Tears are wiped away forever
Joyful songs of pra-ise are heard on ev’ry breath.
Yeah, even though they can’t see it now….
That’s what’s coming next
