R2)The Footprint of Time

V6

​(Verse 1) Since nineteen fourteen, the world has been ablaze, From world wars to destructive weapons, the earth has trembled. From machine guns to bombs, from gunpowder to nuclear power, Millions of lives have gone out in the dust. And the ground beneath our feet cracks and echoes, Hundreds of earthquakes every year make us shudder, Nation against nation, the prophecy awakens, Like a fingerprint watched over by the sky. ​[CHORUS] When you see these things, know that the Kingdom is near! The end of dark days, the great change approaches. May Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, Eliminating evils for an everlasting peace! The footprint is right before our eyes, the sign is revealed, The dawn of a new world will finally rise! ​(Verse 2) The fields dry up, the lack of bread is felt, Shortages and famines come to break the future. Millions of starving souls, children struck down, While epidemics continue to strike. New viruses, ancient fevers, the earth is in pain, Science still searches but runs into a dead end. Yet in the midst of the dark, in over a thousand tongues, A voice rises across the Earth and crosses the ages. ​[CHORUS] When you see these things, know that the Kingdom is near! The end of dark days, the great change approaches. May Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, Eliminating evils for an everlasting peace! The footprint is right before our eyes, the sign is revealed, The dawn of a new world will finally rise! ​(Verse 3) Eight million voices proclaim the good news, In two hundred and forty countries, a solemn warning. A global preaching that history has never seen, To warn mankind before it all comes to pass. These are not random events taking place, But a combined sign that enlightens our gaze. Jesus foretold it, his words are alive, They guide our steps in the middle of the storm. ​[CHORUS] When you see these things, know that the Kingdom is near! The end of dark days, the great change approaches. May Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, Eliminating evils for an everlasting peace! The footprint is right before our eyes, the sign is revealed, The dawn of a new world will finally rise! ​(Verse 4) Soon rival powers will fade away, The King established in heaven will break the curse. No more wars, no more tears, no more grave ever, The Earth will finally become a beautiful, new paradise. The words of the prayer will no longer be a wish, But the sweet reality of God's promise. Reunited humanity will live forever, Guided by the justice and love of the Almighty. ​[OUTRO] (Soft fade out to final silence) The sign is before our eyes... The Kingdom is at the door... "Thy Kingdom come..." On earth as it is in heaven... The day has dawned. ​[FINALE] (Drums and guitars suddenly stop, giving way to an a cappella choir supported by soft symphonic strings) The dawn has broken the night! Time is fulfilled! The veil is torn, the world is set free! Sing, nations of the Earth, the reign has begun, In everlasting light, humanity is saved! ​No more tears... no more night... The Kingdom is here for life....for life...Everlasting.... ​(Last majestic chord of strings and acoustic guitar, fading out slowly) ​
