Gone for Good

He led them out to Bethany and there upon a hill
Commanded them to go and teach and do the Father's will
They watched as He ascended to prepare a place for them
Then went back to the temple and started praising Him

He's not gone forever, He's just gone for good
He's gone to make a home for those who follow like they should
Someday He's coming back again the way He said He would
He's not gone forever, He's just gone for good

It didn't take Him very long to make the world we know
Yet He's been building glory for two thousand years or so
And He's created wonders that we will only see
When He comes to take us and start eternity

He's not gone forever, He's just gone for good
He's gone to make a home for those who follow like they should
Someday He's coming back again the way He said He would
He's not gone forever, He's just gone for good

He's not gone forever, He's just gone for good
He's gone to make a home for those who follow like they should
Someday He's coming back again the way He said He would
He's not gone forever, He's just gone for good

He's just gone for good
Gone for good
