Just before He went away into Heaven
Jesus said that He'd return again some day
And He said be faithful watch and be ready
For the time when I shall take you away
And He said that in the house of the Father
He's preparing now a place for me and you
And He said that where He is
We'll be there for we'll be His
When that city at last comes into view

Chorus 1:

And I believe, I believe
I believe the promise
That His face we'll see
I believe, I believe
The promise that He's coming
He's coming back for me

There will be no warning cry from the rooftops
No announcement in the papers will be made
No committee called to plan a special greeting
No red carpet at His feet will be laid
In the wisdom of the Father is the secret
And in His appointed time the day will come
Only this I know is sure
That the word of God endures
And He never will leave us here alone

Chorus 2:

And I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe
That the promise
That His face we'll see
I believe, I believe
The promise that He's coming
He's coming back for me
I believe the promise
That He's coming
I know He's coming
Back for me
