Another Time Another Place
Evolver Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've always heard there is a land
Beyond the mortal dreams of man
Where every tear will be left behind
But it must be in another time, oh

There'll be an everlasting light
Shining a purest holy white
And every fear will be erased

But it must be in another place, oh, oh

So I'm waiting for another time and another place
Where all my hopes and dreams will be captured
With one look at Jesus' face

Oh, my heart's been burning, my soul keeps yearning
Sometimes I can hardly wait for that sweet, sweet someday
When I'll be swept away to another time and another place

I've grown tired of earthly things
They promise peace but furnish pain
All of life's sweetest joys combined
Could never match those in another time, oh

And though I've put my trust in Christ
And felt His spirit move in my life
I know it's truly just a taste
Of His glory in another place, oh, oh

So I'm waiting for another time and another place
Where all my hopes and dreams will be captured
With one look at Jesus' face

Oh, my heart's been burning, my soul keeps yearning
Sometimes I can hardly wait for that sweet, sweet someday
When I'll be swept away to another time and another place
I'm gonna be swept away, oh

So I'm waiting for another time and another place
Where all my hopes and dreams will be captured
With one look at Jesus' face

Oh, my heart's been burning, my soul keeps yearning
Sometimes I can hardly wait for that sweet, sweet someday

When I'll be swept away to another time and another place
Another time, another place

Although this place exists, it is unreachable in this lifetime

So I'm waiting for another time and another place
Thus, I'm waiting for another era and a different place that will enable me to experience the perfect peace and joy that I seek.

Where all my hopes and dreams will be captured
A place where all the goals we dream of achieving and every desire of our hearts will become a reality, leaving us breathless

With one look at Jesus' face
A moment where everything we ever dreamt of, will only take one look of our Saviour's face to make it come true.

Oh, my heart's been burning, my soul keeps yearning
My heart longs to experience the happiness and quality of life that comes from dwelling in that place

Sometimes I can hardly wait for that sweet, sweet someday

A moment where I will be taken away into that time and place where everything I ever dreamt of experiencing will become a reality

I've grown tired of earthly things
Earthly pleasures fade, and we grow weary of them, as they no longer bring the satisfaction and joy they once held.

They promise peace but furnish pain
Promises of earthly pleasures and indulgences fail to bring peace, but rather, they cause nothing but misery.

All of life's sweetest joys combined
All the happiness, joy, and pleasures of earthly life cannot compare to what we would experience in the other time and place.

Could never match those in another time, oh
The pleasures of this life can never equal the joys in the time and place that we hope to experience.

And though I've put my trust in Christ
Although relying on God and trusting in his words has come to define my life,

And felt His spirit move in my life
And I genuinely feel his presence, moving and influencing my life.

I know it's truly just a taste
I'm aware that everything I'm experiencing now is just a flavor of what is yet to come

Of His glory in another place, oh, oh
It's a moderate display of God's beauty that I'm experiencing now, unlike what I would experience in the other time and place

I'm gonna be swept away, oh
I will be overcome by emotion and swept away in that moment where everything comes together perfectly
