Story behind the song
Our church did a series on the end times. Many tantalizing hints and prophecy but even Jesus tells us that He does not know when, only the Father. So while I may not know about that, there are things I am pretty certain about.
Lyrics
Things I Know For Sure
Some say the signs are pointing
Jesus will soon return –
The wheels are already turning,
The fuse is lit to burn.
The world has never been settled
Though there seems to be more and more.
Storms and tempests
Floods and quakes
Wars and rumors of war.
Are these the signs of His coming?
Is this what we’ve waited for?
I have my doubts
But I have none about
The things I know for sure.
I know that you, God, made it all
And I don’t care how or when.
I know that Jesus walked the earth
And He’s coming back again.
I know that my Redeemer lives
That my sins are washed away.
I know it’s nothing I have earned
Just God’s pure gift of grace.
Jesus is patiently waiting
His Father’s timing unknown
He’s ready to reap His harvest
Once all the seeds are sown.
The world has never been settled
Though there seems to be more and more.
Storms and tempests
Floods and quakes
Wars and rumors of war.
Are these the signs of His coming?
Is this what we’ve waited for?
I have my doubts
But I have none about
The things I know for sure.
I know that the Spirit speaks to me
I have heard it clear as day
I know the choice He offered me
And I chose to obey.
I know that time spent in His word
Is time spent very well
I know that the angels of the Lord
Will defeat the demons of hell.
So we wait on God’s perfect timing
Not even Jesus knows when
We watch for signs of His coming
Believers stay ready ‘til then.
The world has never been settled
Though there seems to be more and more.
Storms and tempests
Floods and quakes
Wars and rumors of war.
Are these the signs of His coming?
Is this what we’ve waited for?
I have my doubts
But I have none about
The things I know for sure.
I know that I cannot conceive
What Heaven has in store.
I know that when we love you Jesus
You love us even more.
I know that I am saved by faith
And salvation is assured
I have no doubts when I think about
These things I know for sure.
I know for sure I don’t think about
How God’s going to work it out.
I know that when I’m done here
I will be with Him.
