When sin overpowered,

Lies broke lose,

Noting on Earth

Was left to lose.

 

(chorus)

In one hour,

Everything can change.

In one day,

Noting else will be the same.

And to know

It will all

Be ok

(Is great)

 

The day we all feared

Is near.

The day of death

Is here

The final battle will be fought and lost tonight

But, when I look in the lion's eyes,

I know that it's all right.

 

(chorus)

 

Further up,

Further in,

The further we go,

The farther from sin

 

Further up,

Further in,

The further we go,

The farther from sin.

 

Here the whole world (Stars, water, air

And fields and forests as they were)

Reflected in a single mind,

Like cast-off clothes was left behind

From ashes with the hope that she,

Re-born from holy poverty,

In Lenten lands hereafter May,

Resume them on her Easter day.

[credit C.S. Lewis]

 

In one hour,

Everything can change.

In one day,

Noting else will be the same.

And to know

It will all

Be ok

The lion says

It will all

Be ok

(I can't wait)
