One Day Closer To Home

See how the earth is moving and shaking,
    See all the sickness and pain.
See all the violence, corruption and murder.
    Hear how the righteous are verbally slain.

The minds of our children are poisened in school,
    by teaching them ungodly things.
They have no respect for their parents
   worshipping Satan, drugs, pleasure and things.

When we're closer ,dear Lord to Your coming
    violence will increase we are told,
But those who know You need have no fear,
    they will be gathered into Your fold.

The things we are seeing all tell us
    we're getting closer to home.
Just look around and you'll know it
    We're one day closer to home
