Why this happened i cannot explain why write the script with such heartache and pain could
there not have been an easier way watching life through this glass so faded i cannot see the
bigger picture taking place oh to understand one day.
[chorus]
When i finally see you face to face and my tears will fly away, away.
It won't be long until we all go home with all things revealed and on that day we'll finally
know oh, as we are fully known.
And what appears as incomplete is still completely Yours and one day we'll see as we've been
seen and we'll soar.
[back to chorus]

The song reassures that what seems incomplete is still held by God, and one day we will fully understand and be known. It offers comfort to those grieving or struggling, pointing to the promise of eternal home and the joy of being fully seen and known by God.
