One day up in Heaven,
the Savior said, good-bye
As He started on His journey,
The holy angels cried
He turned to face His Father
This they heard Him say,
Mankind owes a debt below
That only I can pay
So I’ll be back, I’ll be back
I’ll be gone for a little while
One day I’m coming back,
I’ll be back.

On His way to Jerusalem,
Jesus told His men
You’ll see the Son betrayed there,
There I’ll be condemned,
you’ll see them mock me and curse Me,
you’ll see me crucified,
You’ll see me suffer in agony
And there you’ll see me die

But I’ll be back, I’ll be back
Just a few short days
Then I’ll be back.

But after they laid
My sweet Jesus in the tomb
He got up and took a trip down below
And showed the devil that he Had lost
The battle for man’s soul
And I believe that as He took the keys
He looked the devil right in the eye
He said, the grave could not hold me -
I‘m headed back to Glory-
So devil just keep this in mind-

I'll be back.
I'll be back
I'll be gone for a little while
One day I'm coming back-
I'll be back

One day on a hillside
Jesus rose up in the clouds
The Words He spoke came flooding back
To some young men in the crowd
He said, I go to prepare a place,
But I’ll be back again
Gonna' take my people to a land
Where joy shall never end

‘Cause' I’ll be back, I’ll be back
I’ll just be gone for a little while
But one day I'm coming back
I’ll be back.
I’ll be back.

I hope you're ready to me meet me
One day I’m coming back,
And I'll be back

Christians don't lose faith
Cause' I'll be back

And while they looked stedfastly
toward heaven as he went up,
behold, two men stood by
them in white apparel;
Which also said, Ye men of Galilee,
why stand ye gazing up into heaven?
this same Jesus, which is taken up
from you into heaven,
shall so come in like manner
as ye have seen him go into heaven.
Acts 1:10-11 (KJV)
