Lyrics
Looking back You have been so faithful
I believe that the best will come
Through the pain, there's a strength that I can't ignore
There's a hope found in every season
There are days when it won't make sense
Still I know that You're God and I won't forget
Something's about to break, breakthrough is coming
Something's about to change, revival, among us
When Your Spirit moves, a new day will rise
We believe in faith, that breakthrough is coming
Oh, breakthrough is coming
Here I am, I will be expectant
Spirit, move like You've never done
There's a fire that's burning and I can't ignore
Reaching out with my hands to Heaven
Lord, You know what the future holds
I will trust that You're God and I won't forget
Something's about to break, breakthrough is coming
Something's about to change, revival, among us
When Your Spirit moves, a new day will rise
We believe in faith, that breakthrough is coming
More than what our eyes can see
Far beyond our wildest dreams
We can see it coming, we can see it coming
At Your word, the mountains move
A new day's here and breaking through
We can see it coming, we can see that
Something's about to break, breakthrough is coming
Something's about to change, revival, among us
When Your Spirit moves, a new day will rise
We believe in faith, that breakthrough is coming
Oh, breakthrough is coming
Oh, breakthrough is coming

Meaning & Inspiration
Breakthrough Is Coming pairs remembrance of God’s faithfulness with expectation for renewed spiritual activity. Pain and uncertainty are acknowledged rather than denied, yet they do not have the final word. The singer looks back for evidence of God’s care and then faces the future with trust, asking the Spirit to move and bring revival. Hope rests in God’s character even when present circumstances do not make sense.
The chorus anticipates change, while the bridge expands that confidence beyond what human sight can measure. Its image of mountains moving at God’s word recalls Jesus’ teaching about faith and prayer, though the lyric applies the image broadly to obstacles and divine intervention. Repeated declarations of an approaching breakthrough give the song a communal, expectant quality. Faith here is portrayed as active dependence: reaching toward heaven, trusting that God knows what lies ahead, and refusing to forget earlier faithfulness.
