There are days, and there are days 
In this world we experience 
Days of pains, days of suffering 
Other days, as we wait, God intervenes 
To reveal glory in the life of His 
As we’re becoming more like Him 
 
There are days, and there are days 
In this world, we eagerly hope 
Our person for glorious days hoping 
Right here on earth to experience 
God to His own reveals His plan 
As we’re becoming more like Him  
 
There are many such days 
In this world, we earnestly pray 
 With our heart and spirit, we pray 
And the Spirit for us intercede with groans 
God the intercession gloriously honor 
As we’re becoming more like Him 
 
Yes, in this world we may suffer 
And in the body pains, we’ll feel 
But in heaven is the greatest hope we have 
And with the greatest of glory, we’ll be filled 
Oh how most glorious heaven for us will be! 
When like the God of glory we’ll look.
