Waiting

Sometimes waiting means to stay
Sometimes it means for you to get the hell out the way
Think of waiting as just a game
All it takes is one bold heart to play

Sometimes waiting's not your choice
You can try to talk it out but don't you dare raise your voice
Make sure you hear what He has to say
Make sure you agree with Him in every way

And the seconds might seem slowed down
Every minute might get longer day by day
But every hour that you wait
Is another hour that it takes
For you to see Him face to face

You know you should've slowed down
You should've kept your heart right in its place
But if waiting's what it takes
Then I'd wait another day

No, my waiting's not for show
I may have cried once, I may have cried a hundred times more
I've realized I'm not waiting for anyone
Anyone oh but myself, oh

And the seconds they seemed slowed down
And the minutes got damn longer day by day
But if this hour that I wait
Is another hour that it takes
For me to see You face to face

I know I should've slowed down
I should've kept my heart right in Your hands
But if waiting's what it takes
Then I'll wait another day

Then I'll wait another day
Then I'll wait another day

And no matter how long it'll take
Through many years, and many tears that I'll face
Some might say, I may be wasting all my days
But I'll wait
