Christian Songs“No One Is Aware of God’s Arrival”: The Lord Jesus Has Returned to the World

No one’s aware of God’s arrival,

no man welcomes His coming.

And furthermore, nobody knows

all the things He’ll be doing.

I

Man’s life remains unchanged;

his heart is just the same,

as usual the days go by.

God lives among us as

a meager follower, a common believer.

He has His own pursuits, goals,

and divinity common men don’t possess.

None’s noticed its existence, or perceived the difference

between God’s and man’s substance.

No one’s aware of God’s arrival,

no man welcomes His coming.

And furthermore, nobody knows

all the things He’ll be doing.

II

We all live joined with Him, unconstrained, not afraid,

for He’s just a meager believer in our eyes.

Our moves are watched by Him,

our thoughts laid bare to Him.

No one’s aware of God’s arrival.

No man welcomes His coming.

And furthermore, nobody knows

all the things He’ll be doing.

III

None takes interest in God’s existence,

nor imagines His function.

No one guesses who He is.

We just continue our pursuits,

as if God has nothing, nothing to do with us,

as if God has nothing, nothing to do with us.

No one’s aware of God’s arrival.

No man welcomes His coming.

And furthermore, nobody knows

all the things He’ll be doing.
