Somebody say
I will stay
I will stay
On the altar
To drink of the living water
Till I overflow
I will be satisfied
For this is what the nation needs

I will stay
On the altar
To drink of the living water
Till I overflow
I will be satisfied
For this what the nation
For this what the nation needs

Somebody pray in the Holy Ghost
We decide to wait
Lift your voice and say: Wait on the Lord

Wait on the Lord, wait, wait
Stay with the Lord, stay, stay
Build up your Strength

Build up your Strength

Lift your hand and say
I will wait
Will stay
On the altar
To drink of the living water
Till I overflow
I will be satisfied
For this is what the nations need

I will stay
On the altar
To drink of the living water
Till I overflow
I will be satisfied
For this is what the nation need

Pray to the Lord, say
I will stay
At the altar
To drink of the living water
Till I overflow
I will be satisfied
For this is what the nation need

Lift your hand and pray in the Holy Ghost
Somebody receive strength
Somebody receive strength
Somebody wait on the Lord

I will wait on the Lord
I'm gonna wait
I will wait on the Lord
I'm gonna wait

I will wait on the Lord
I'm gonna wait
I'm gonna wait on the Lord

On the altar
To drink of the living water
