Arrived - Enfield
I love this song. It so perfectly captures the longing of a Christian’s heart.
Maranatha, Lord.
Lyrics
Watching and waiting our whole life through
For the moment when we arrive in glory.
We’ll be standing before His emerald throne.
O what a day it will be!
All tears are gone and suffering ceased,
Perfect new life with no earthly strife,
For we’ve finished the race, run to His embrace.
O what a day that will be!
When we’ve arrived, stunned and surprised,
All things resolved in the blink of an eye;
No more distractions, no sin left to fight.
That first glimpse of Jesus and faith becomes sight.
Feel the ground shake, hear thunder roll.
See blinding light and seraphim flight.
All amazed we will fall, yet the Father will call,
“Stand, I have made you my own!”
A choir with angels, martyrs and saints,
Singing His praise, with no end to the day,
Shouting “holy, holy, holy” to Almighty God;
O what a song that will be!
When we’ve arrived, stunned and surprised,
All things resolved in the blink of an eye;
No more distractions, no sin left to fight.
That first glimpse of Jesus and faith
When we’ve arrived, stunned and surprised,
All things resolved in the blink of an eye;
No more distractions, no sin left to fight.
That first glimpse of Jesus,
That first glimpse of Jesus,
That first glimpse of Jesus and faith becomes sight.
