God Is Coming
Tim Hughes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In this moment here I am
All I have is in Your hands
You stole my heart so I will wait for You
Your fire of love is breaking through
The old has gone there's something new
You've won my heart so I will wait for You

For my God is coming
We can hear the heavens roar
Hold on get ready
For the glory of the Lord

Here You come
Running to find me
King of the universe
Yes our God is the God who saves
Here You come
To light up the darkness
Forever glorious
Yes our God is the God who saves

In our world that's torn apart
Give us courage give us heart
Only You can raise the dead to life
Take our voices keep us strong
We'll shake the earth with heaven's song
You alone can take what's wrong
And make it right

For my God is coming
We can hear the heavens roar
Hold on get ready
For the glory of the Lord

Here You come
Running to find me
King of the universe
Yes our God is the God who saves
Here You come
To light up the darkness
Forever glorious
Yes our God is the God who saves

Great is the Lord
You are Lord
God is great

Here You come
Running to find me
King of the universe
Yes our God is the God who saves
Here You come
To light up the darkness




Forever glorious
Yes our God is the God who saves
