People wear a vested interest
In covering up the lies
Will tell you it's the same
Since the world's foundation
Morning and noon and night
But the Lord is not slack in His promise
Each day is by His command
He's just giving everybody
A chance for salvation
Before He lowers His hand

The day of the Lord is comin'
Like a thief in the deep of the night
To strike fear in the hearts of darkness
And joy in the children of light
As it was in the time of Noah
So shall His coming be
No one's gonna know the hour or the minute
But the signs are getting plainer to see

The gospel is preached to the nations
The victory's leaves are green
Young men are prophesying
Old men are dreaming dreams
Sinew is knitted to sinew
Bones being fastened to bone
And every day nearer to the day of the Lord
Is like a thousand years closer to home
Jesus is coming in power
To sit on a throne of light
Calling every nation before His face
Judging man left and right
And He'll give the keys of the Kingdom
To everyone worthy to stand
To those found walking in righteousness
In the day of the Son of Man

And the gospel is preached to the nations
The victory's leaves are green
Young men are prophesying
Old men are dreaming dreams
Sinew is knitted to sinew
Bones being fastened to bone
And every day nearer to the day of the Lord
Is like a thousand years closer to home
And every day nearer to the day of the Lord
Is like a thousand years closer to home
