I will wait for you
By the lonely roads
By the banks of bathing streams
By the foot of dancing trees
I will wait.
I will wait for you
I will wait and wait again
When the sky ceases to rain
When turbulence takes the reign
When waiting seems with no gain.
I will wait and wait again
When waiting brings me pain
When hope drives me insane
When waiting throws at me, disdain.
I will wait
Wait when the weight adds weight
When foolish turns my faith
When suffering seems my fate
Yet will I wait.
I will wait Lord
Just guide me round from dawn to dusk
Wrap me in your warm embrace
Like the husk does its maize
Upon your living bread will I wait oh Lord
I will wait if waiting is all I can afford
Hold me down to my knees when I’m here or abroad
Help me to sit waiting and never be bored.
I want to wait.
I’m willing to bear the weight
To sit and stand by the gate
Asking no one for the date.
I will wait
