Already But Not Yet Lyrics

English translation

At present, we do not yet see that everything is in subjection to Jesus Christ

But when He comes again we'll clearly see He's ruling everything

Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord

All things will unite in Christ in the fullness of time

The kingdom of God was certainly inaugurated

Through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ

However, all things wait for the consummation

When all things will unite in Christ during His second coming

Also, we're living between Jesus's first and second coming

In other words, we're in the period of the already but not yet

For instance, we already rose up with Christ from the dead

But on the last day those dead in Christ will rise from the grave

According to Ephesians 2:8, we've been saved

But according to Romans 5:9, we shall be saved

We're living in the already but not yet

That's the reason sometimes we get ill

And are still wrestling against the spiritual forces of evil

This will end only when Jesus Christ returns

At present, we do not yet see that everything is in subjection to Jesus Christ

But when He comes again, we'll clearly see He's ruling everything

Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord

All things will unite in Christ in the fullness of time

Christians, we're at war against Satan

Our victory is guaranteed in Yahweh

In the end Satan will be thrown into the lake of fire

There he will be tormented day and night forever

Nevertheless, sometimes it feels like we're losing the battle

It feels like evil forces are winning at tormenting us

It feels like Satan is sifting us like wheat

And so if Christ indeed defeated Satan

Why then don't we feel victorious every day?

Sometimes we get terrified

Sometimes we grow weak

And yet the Holy Spirit is ever present here with us

Why is that the case?

The reason is we're already there but not yet!

The kingdom of God has certainly been inaugurated

However, it is yet to be consummated

The kingdom of God will fully be manifested

When all things will unite in Christ in when He returns

In Christ we're certainly blessed

But when He comes again on the last day

All things will unite in Him

And at last we'll fully enjoy our blessings

At present, we do not yet see that everything is in subjection to Jesus Christ

But when He comes again, we'll clearly see He's ruling everything

Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord

All things will unite in Christ in the fullness of time

Chichewa version

Pena zimadzawoneka ngati kuti zinthu zonse

Sizili pansi pa Yesu Khristu

Koma kubwela kwake ndikomwe kudzatichotse

M'dima wina uliwonse m'maso mwathu

Tidzaona bwinobwino akulamulila china chilichonse

Bondo lina lililonse lidzamugwadira

Yesu ndi Ambuye ndipo palibenso wina

Mwa khristu zinthu zonse zidzakwaniritsidwa

Ufumu wa Mulungu ndithu unakhazikitsidwa

Ndi moyo imfa kuwuka kwake kwa Yesu khristu
