lyrics

But Not Yet

Oh my God
You won't let this lost son be
You've been aiming down the crosshairs
And fixing them on me
And I can only hope the shot rings true
I've been harboring a hardened heart
Who's only hope is you

Now what then is there left to hold
Between the payoff and the debt
He is here and He shall come
Already, but not yet

Love and peace
It seems have all but gone
Like justice in the system
Or meaning to the song
And I confess, most times they aren't in me
But truth lives on despite it all
The word and the decree

So now, unsure, I hope in truth
Just a gambler and his bet
He is here and He shall come
Already, but not yet

I still feel the moment
That death and I first met
I took the fruit down from the tree
And ate of my regret
But a man bore all my burden
He took up all the blame
Yeah, I strung up my atonement
Left Him naked and ashamed

No more let sin and sorrow grow
Nor pain and time beset
Just let these words be what I sing
Already, but not yet

Now these presidents and rulers
All these once-and-then-gone kings
Well, they speak in golden tongues
And spit out empty offerings
But lately I've heard rumors going around
That there's a King returning soon
Who's head deserves the crown

One day that trumpet blast will sound
To sing of His descent
He is here, and He shall reign
Already, but not yet

He is here, and He shall reign
Already, but not yet

This my hope and this my claim
Already, but not yet
