We know he will come again

Not just a promise
something deeper within
somehow knowing, confident
all will be fulfilled

We know he will come again
the living, risen Christ
come to judge the whole world
to open paradise

We must be awake, sharing
offering his love to all
we must be active, not silent
that joy may abound

We are his hands and feet
his voice here in this life
we are to sow our seeds
his love over the earth
