Sign of Your Coming

We ask you for the sign of your coming
We want to know when you will be here
You answered with a sigh and refused
You knew that still we did not hear

Our hearts are hardened still
Our eyes are blind and we don’t see
That You are the Lord that fed the thousands
And You are the Lord who rules for all eternity

And why do we come to you and ask for what we already have?
And why do we seek answers that have already been given?
It’s our dull perception, our shallow hearts that rule us still
It’s our inability to stand that leaves us here to question you more
And ask for a sign of Your coming when You are already here

You know the truth but it has yet to take root
You have seen all the things that only I can do
I wonder why still don’t you see
I wonder why still don’t you believe

Your hearts are hardened still
Your eyes are blind and you don’t see
That I am the Lord that fed the thousands
And I am the Lord who will rule for all eternity

So why do you come to me and ask for what you already have?
And why do you seek answers that I have already given?
It’s your dull perception, your shallow hearts that rule you still
It’s your inability to stand on your own that makes you question me more
You ask for a sign of my coming when I am already here

Mark 8:1-21
