Children in the dark
searching all around
hidden in your spots
suddenly you're found
This is the game we used to play
but there are higher stakes these days
(chorus)
like a thief in the night
in the place where you hide
he will come like a thief in the night
like a thief in the night
he will come for his bride
he will come like a thief in the night
Where is jesus now?
ask the man of learning
he will never show
logic won't allow him
These are the things that people say
what words will they use that day?
(chorus)
And when he's here he'll shout
erasing every doubt
and then we'll cry out
save us
save us
save us
(chorus)
