Present sufferings, future glory

There are days, and there are days
In this world we experience
Days of pains, days of suffering
Other days, as we wait, God intervenes
To reveal glory in the life of His
As we’re becoming more like Him

There are days, and there are days
In this world, we eagerly hope
Our person for glorious days hoping
Right here on earth to experience
God to His own reveals His plan
As we’re becoming more like Him

There are many such days
In this world, we earnestly pray
With our heart and spirit, we pray
And the Spirit for us intercede with groans
God the intercession gloriously honor
As we’re becoming more like Him

Yes, in this world we may suffer
And in the body pains, we’ll feel
But in heaven is the greatest hope we have
And with the greatest of glory, we’ll be filled
Oh how most glorious heaven for us will be!
When like the God of glory we’ll look.
