He Ain't Gone For Good

(альбом: My Gospel Roots - 2017)

Jesus virgin our salvation from the borrowed grave
Rising up to leave behind the tomb where He was laid
Then He revealed what was concealed and secrets long foretold
Showing His disciples why He came and where He'd go

It took a forty day long journey to tell 'em all He had to say
With one question still unanswered as they watched Him go away
An angel came and told them what they've not understood
Though He seemed good and gone, He ain't gone for good

Now we still hear the promise that's been echoed through the years
It's the source of all we hope for, the faith beyond the fear
It's the reason for believing He's the only one who could
And though it seems He's good and gone, He ain't gone for good

The mockers and the scoffers say He ain't coming back
But concerning every prophecy He's been right on track
Appearance can be deceiving if you ain't looking where you should
And though He seems good and gone, He ain't gone for good

Now we still hear the promise that's been echoed through the years
It's the source of all we hope for, the faith beyond the fear
It's the reason for believing He's the only one who could
And though it seems He's good and gone, He ain't gone for good

It's the reason for believing He's the only one who could
And though it seems He's good and gone, He ain't gone for good
