The Now And The Not Yet - Amy Grant

No longer what we were before

But not all that we will be

Tomorrow, when we lock the door

On all our compromising

When He appears

He’ll draw us near

And we’ll be changed by His glory

Wrapped up in His glory…

We will be like Him

For we shall see Him

As He is

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la…)

No longer what we saw before

But not all that we will see

Tomorrow, when we lock the door

On all our disbelieving

When He appears (holy, holy)

Our view will clear

And we’ll be changed by His glory

Wrapped up in His glory…

But I’m caught in between

The now and the not yet;

Sometimes it seems like

Forever and ever

That I’ve been reaching to be

All that I am

But I’m only a few steps nearer

Yet I’m nearer…

No longer what we were before

But not all that we will be

Tomorrow, when we lock the door

On all our disbelieving

And He appears (holy, holy)

He’ll draw us near

And we’ll be changed by His glory

Wrapped up in His glory…

When He appears (holy, holy)

He’ll draw us near

And we’ll be changed by His glory

Wrapped up in His glory…
