When I was a little boy, I heard about the last days Some morning when the lord will come again I remember how the saints of old sang about his his coming Guess I didnt think much about it then Soon the years took me far away and church became a memory I lived my life believing they were wrong But everyday I live I see those prophesies fulfilling By the signs of the times, I believe it wont be long In the east, on a cloud He'll be coming for his children And the monuments of sin will surely fall I can see by the word that the day is drawing nearer Im not looking for the signs anymore Im listening for the call Take a look in the bible and you'll read of war and famine You'll read about when men will fall away Two thousand years ago upon the pages that were written But i'm telling you it sounds just like today In the east on a cloud He'll be coming for his children And the monuments of sin will surely fall I can see by the word that the day is drawing nearer I'm not looking for the signs anymore I'm listening for the call I can see by the word that the day is drawing nearer I'm not looking for the signs anymore I'm listening for the call
