I’ve been enjoying the title track from Coram Deo’s album Swallowed Up Death.
The lyrics are based on Isaiah 25 & 35; Romans 8:18-25.
The lyrics:
The whole of nature groans with longing
We ache for that promised glory
Still we rejoice because we know
plans formed of old, faithful and sure
The whole of nature groans with longing
We wait for that promised glory
Still we rejoice because we know
that sorrow’s end is coming
He will swallow up death
and wipe the tears from our faces
He will swallow up death
and wipe the tears from our faces
We’ll sing this is our God we’ve waited for
and he saved us
He will swallow up death
and wipe the tears from our faces
Here in the darkness of our mourning
We wait for the Light that’s coming
And on that day we will return
with joy and gladness singing
Behold, your God
He will come and save you
