about

As the title track of this album, it encapsulates everything I wanted this album to say; that ‘worship’ is far more than singing songs, no matter how good they are and how we feel whilst we sing them. In fact, we can sing all the songs in the world but if our actions and attitudes throughout the week don’t match, they are useless.

‘This Time Tomorrow’ is also the name of an initiative by the London Institute For Contemporary Christianity’ which encourages church leaders to interview members of their congregation in services on a regular basis to ask them to share a little of their experience of being a Christian at work and how they could be prayed for and supported by their church. I think it’s a great idea and affirms the gospel message that we are to be ‘salt and light’ in the nitty-gritty of everyday life, in one of the places we spend the most of our time, work.

I subsequently found out that it is also a song by one of my favourite bands, The Kinks! In fact, the first line is identical! I always thought Ray Davis was such a great lyricist, I just didn’t realise we had so much in common ☺

lyrics

This time tomorrow

Verse 1
This time tomorrow, where will we be?
Out on the frontlines and battlefields
As kingdom agents of love and grace
To spread the gospel in every place

Verse 2
This time tomorrow, I'll face the day
Though stress may follow, I'll quietly pray
In every burden, in word and deed
The love of Jesus will work through me

Chorus
And there will never be an end to the mission of God
Until every tribe hears that Jesus is Lord
Where the soil is hard and the labourers few
We will sow in faith and proclaim the truth
With the people of faith and those covered in shade
We will shine like stars in your heavens displayed
For the sake of the lost, we will never give up
We will carry the cross this time tomorrow
This time tomorrow

Verse 3
This time tomorrow, the world awaits an invitation
As God narrates a bigger story, for all mankind
No greater purpose a soul shall find

Middle 8
May our bodies be an offering
As we work with all our hearts
Every area of life surrendered to the Lord
