Coming Soon
The Spencers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Coming soon, Jesus and all his glory
Not just a savior, but a reigning king
Coming soon and the whole world will be witness
Oh be ready, for he is coming soon

2nd Once he came to this old world of sin and of sin and sorrow
An humble babe in a manger, in Bethlehem
But this time he's coming in all his power

Great peace on earth, will bow and worship his great name

And when he comes, he'll bind the power of old satan
Little children with the lamb and lion will play

All the earth will be so filled, with his grace and glory
No need for crying, for all with tears are wiped away
