Many a year I'd been waiting for love to comfort my soul

Many a night I went looking around to find a cure for it all

Then I finally found it in a way I never thought I would know,

For I’d looked East and South and West until finally

The Holy Book I was shown.

Now I know …

He’s comin’ again,

Yes, He's coming for me, I know, / Jesus is coming for me, I know,

Comin’ to take me Home to my heavenly Home.

[I know that He’s] [JESUS IS] comin’ again,

Yes, He’s comin’ for me, I know,

Comin’ to take me Home, never more to roam.

Many a time I thought joy was something that I’d just never know.

Many a night I spent prayin’ for someone Who would not let me go.

Then He came into my life and filled my heart with love.

Now I’m waiting for the day when He’ll come again,

Come from above.

[Repeat Chorus]

Coming back to take His own back Home to their reward;
After history's toughest test, we'll be rescued by our Lord.
As quickly as the lightning lights the sky from east to west,

That's how Jesus will come; all God's children will be blessed

To receive Heaven's best.
