When the Healing Comes

The Earth, she groans in fear

With war and hunger here

Where right seems very wrong

The weak crushed by the strong

Souls in exile cry

Bound by the chains of night

Longing to be set free

Oh, how we want to see

Graves burst open wide

And His glorious bride

In majesty will rise

One day soon, when the healing comes

The wicked rule the day

The faithful lose their way

It's hard to comprehend

The world we're living in

Where kings and nations rage

And children learn to hate

His coming must be near

How long until we hear?

Graves burst open wide

And His glorious bride

In majesty will rise

One day soon, when the healing comes

All heartache will be gone

We'll be gathered home

To sing redemption's song

When the healing comes

When, in love, the Father says

"No more tears"

No death, no fear, no suffering

Then Jesus will appear

Graves burst open wide (Oh, yeah)

And His glorious bride (His glorious bride)

In majesty will rise (When He comes)

One day soon, when the healing comes (When Jesus comes)

All heartache will be gone (Oh, yeah)

And we'll be gathered home (We'll be going home)

To sing redemption's song

When the healing comes

Graves burst open wide

And His glorious bride

In majesty will rise

One day soon, when the healing comes

All heartache will be gone

And we'll be gathered home (To sit at the throne)

To sing redemption's song

When the healing comes

When the healing comes

When the healing

When the race is run

And the crown is won (And the crown is won)

We'll hear Him say ,"Well done"

When the healing comes

(When the healing) When the healing comes
