Foreign Land

Sitting in a foreign land
Far away from a place that I call home
Waiting on the Promised Day
When I and others like me will be
Taken away, taken away then will I be

I can't get quite comfortable here
Without knowing without what's going to happen around the bend
Deep call it the deep, there's an emptiness in me
For a paradise I never seen yet I know exists
So I'll take the risk of being laughed at for my faith and be

Taken away, taken away
Then will I be at rest
Then will I be at rest

There's a war going on in my mind
Feel like I'm not led all the time
But I won't lose hope
Neither will I lose courage
I'm going to set my face like a flint and I refuse to be discouraged

For the word, the word, the word of God is true
It's impossible for God to lie
He said He's coming back to get me, yes, He did
And on that first trumpet sound we're going to
Take wings and fly, take wings and fly
Then will I be at rest

There's a war going on in my mind
Seems like I'm body-led all the time
But I won't lose hope
And Neither will I lose courage
I'm going to set my face like a flint and I refuse to be discouraged

For the word, the word of God, the word of God is true
It's impossible for God to lie
He said He's coming back, said He's coming, said He's coming back to get me
He said He's coming back and we're gonna
Take wings and fly take wings and fly
Then will I be at rest
Then will I be at rest
Then will I be at rest
Then will I be at rest
