Signs of the times are everywhere
There's a brand new feeling in the air
Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky
Lift up your head
Redemption draweth nigh
Years of time have come and gone
Since I first heard it told
How Jesus would come again someday
And if back then it seemed so real
Then I just can't help but feel
How much closer his coming is today
War and strife on every hand
And violence fills our land
Still, some people doubt He'll come again
Oh, but the word of God is true
He'll redeem His chosen few
So, don't lose hope, for soon Christ Jesus will descend
Signs of the times are everywhere
There's a brand new feeling in the air
Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky
Lift up your head
Redemption draweth nigh
It will be worth it all
When we see Jesus
Life's trials will seem so small
When we see Christ
When redeemed I shall stand
Over in the promised land
With the mighty blood-washed throng
I will sing redemption's song
Crying, "Worthy is the lamb"
When redeemed at his throne I stand
Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky
Lift up your head
Lift up your head
Lift up your head
Your redemption draweth nigh
Draweth nigh
