A Great Good Is Coming

[Chorus]
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
We all know
Where this thing is leading
The still, hard, dying breath of flesh gone cold
We need to know
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now

[Chorus]
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
We all know
Where this thing is leading
The still, hard, dying breath of flesh gone cold
We need to know
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now

[Verse 1]
We’d be thankful if you could stay here longer
Embrace again with us our suffering and joy
And bound to the earth we’ll all be buried under
But there’s a ticket to the Most High Country
In the pocket of your dust-woven jacket

[Chorus]
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
We all know
Where this thing is leading
The still, hard, dying breath of flesh gone cold
We need to know
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now

[Verse 2]
Go on, throw off this messy, struggling existence
Put on the garments made of everlasting light
Slip past our fears, our sorrows, and your own resistance
And those dashed and broken expectations
There is a “well done” for you in the end

[Verse 3]
There is much more here than meets the eye
Much more much more much more
Your treasure is where your longing heart resides
Inside the world’s great dissonant roar
Is the stillness of the kingdom come

[Chorus]
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
We all know
Where this thing is leading
The still, hard, dying breath of flesh gone cold
We need to know
A great good is coming
To you, too big for this world to hold
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now

[Outro]
(A great good is coming)
(To you, too big for this)
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now
(A great good is coming)
(To you, too big for this)
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now
(A great good is coming)
(To you, too big for this)
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now
(A great good is coming)
(To you, too big for this)
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now
(A great good is coming)
(To you, too big for this)
And soon
Very soon
Leaving now
