Longing

about

Some days I feel like I'd just like to be done with this life. So much struggle, strife, pain, frustration—and not just your own life, but all the messes around you, too. It can be so hard! We long for the day when we will be free; when Jesus will set things right.

But maybe we already have what we are Longing for?

lyrics

Longing (2004)

One day this will all be over, this stuff that we call history
And all that seems important just won’t matter anymore
How I long to get there, and call this life my yesterday
Leave behind the pain and doubt—I long for so much more
I’m longing for the day

chorus
When all I need to know is that you love me
And all my pain is dead and gone
And all I ever thought was gain, is quickly put to shame
By the life I’m longing for

I like to see the good around me, everywhere I am today
The bad can feel much smaller, when I focus on the good
But sometimes it’s too much for me, the evil and the selfish way
We live today together… I long for so much more
I’m longing for the day

bridge:
Never again will pain have it’s way
Death will have no sway
Sorrow has gone away
'Cause this is the day
