I Find Rest

There's a pressure building underneath our wings
Preparing of people to fly home
And I feel this difference in the air
Yet His Spirit whispers to my soul
That with patience I must still press to the goal
Be steady, it will strengthen me to know

I've got to be in condition to go home
So I surrender to the fire that brings me change
Holding loose all that I possess
In this season, I find rest

Soon the last war will drawn on the sands of time
We will stack our weapons on the banks of heaven shore
But for now we must polish our sword again
Advancing onward even as the sun goes down
Embrace the heat of battle taking back our ground
Till the captain says you've conquered,
Trade your armor for a crown

I will take your hand across the table there
We'll cry tears of joy, for the harvest our labors reap
And the pain and heartache, we carried on the earth alone
They seem a friend now as we kneel before the throne
They served a purpose to ready me for home
I rejoice in the testing for I will overcome
