Verse 1

When all the world is sleeping,
the stars and I are weeping.
When the night came down, my sorrows came in,
and though my heart is aching,
I know dawn is breaking,
and I know my joy will come once again.

Verse 2

O God, you made a promise
the end of every sadness
but no one knows the hour or the day
when we will see your glory,
when you come restoring,
And it’s hard to hope with all things in wait.

Refrain

So we cry, “When, Lord, when?
When will you come again?”
Yes, “When, Lord, when?
Come to us again!”

Verse 3

I know it ends in glory,
the road you set before me,
that you triumph even over my death,
but all that's lost behind me,
Oh, may it someday find me
in the joy of all that's still not here yet
in the joy of all that's still not here yet

Not Here Yet
