One day the sun's gonna set in the west for the last time
One day we're gonna earn a dollar that we spend for the last time
One day we're gonna close our eyes to the sky for the last time
But the last time will be the first time of a whole new life

We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
We won't build our home on the sinking sand
But the rock that doesn't change
No, the sun won't shine forever
On the world and all its treasures
We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades

One day we're gonna wake up feeling no pain for the first time
One day we're gonna walk on streets of gold for the first time
One day we're gonna see the lord with our own eyes for the first time
But the first time will be the sunrise of a whole new life

We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
We won't build our home on the sinking sand
But the rock that doesn't change
No, the sun won't shine forever
On the world and all its treasures
We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades

Yeah, we're goin' home, home
Heaven is our home, home
Yeah, we're goin' home, home
This world is not our home, home, home
Yeah, we're goin' home
Won't be distracted by the bright lights
Or the dark nights or the short life that we're living in
Our hope is everlasting you know
Because heaven is our home
Heaven is our home

We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
We won't build our home on the sinking sand
But the rock that doesn't change
No, the sun won't shine forever
On the world and all its treasures
We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
We won't build our home on the sinking sand
But the rock that doesn't change
No, the sun won't shine forever
On the world and all its treasures
We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
No, the sun won't shine forever
On the world and all its treasures
We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
We won't build our faith on the fading lights
But on the light that never fades
