Lord, I’m sure to spend time this day
– even most of today – waiting…
I’ll wait for someone to get here
I’ll wait for someone to get here
or for someone else to get lost…
I’ll wait to welcome some company
or wait just to be alone…
I’ll wait for something to happen
or wait in hope that it won’t…
I might wait in joyful impatience
or mark time in fearful foreboding…
Perhaps I’ll pass the time today
waiting for time to pass…
I’ll wait for today to be over
and I’ll wait for tomorrow to come…
And I’ll wait for you, Lord,
with trust and with hope
I’ll wait day and night
’til I see your face…
I’ll wait for you
who wait for me
and in my waiting
I’ll find you, Lord,
who wait while I wait
to be found…
