Beyond the borders of the soul, there flows a river fast and free
It rushes in swallows whole and carries loved ones out to sea
with broken hearts and faith filled eyes help us search for hope behind the hurt
Oh Lord, lead us as we grieve, believing we will see the day that You return
Though in this moment we may weep, the grave is not the final word
The song that spread the skies will make our bodies rise, the day that You return
I know the pain will fade away and peace will rule the years
But I need you now to help me see farther than the tears.
Creation waits with baited breath for heaven’s heart to be revealed
When all your children rise from death, and all the universe is healed
Your family from everywhere will gather in the open air
To welcome Jesus home, his fire in our bones, the day that He returns
United with our own to know as we are known,
Oh how our Spirits yearn for the day that you return.
