Signs and Wonders

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Expect the unexpected
With signs and wonders too
Jesus Christ is coming back
And all his words are true!

Get used to living for today
Its really all you have
Your worries all will float away
Once you have had a bath

So, go down to the river
You can watch the water flow
The surging sea will be subdued
And through it you can go

The sea of trouble rises up
And goes back to its place
And when you have passed through it
Then a song you can embrace
