IM WAITING, LORD
Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)
IM WAITING, LORD
I'm waiting, Lord, I wait
While the world adds Weight
I stand true, don't hesitate
As the Enemy mocks my fate
I'm waiting, Lord for you
Through everything I am true
See the pain I've been through
I wait, as you told me too
I'm waiting, Lord, as time passes
While nations rise in mighty clashes
Watch as an entire world crashes
I wait as the enemy slashes
I'm waiting Lord, I said I would
And in all things God is good
I wait, as a faithful servant should
Even if I die I wait as I could
I'm waiting Lord, none understand
That I rest here in Your hand
I am a witness against this land
And I wait, here as I stand
I'm waiting Lord, faithful and true
I wait and stand here for You
My wait,Lord, is almost through
I can't wait for what You're about to do
Amen
