lyrics

We Wait for You
Genesis 3, Isaiah 6:11-13, 11:1-5, 9:1-7, Malachi 4:2
CCLI # 7159406

Verse 1
A broken mirror, painted black
There is no light reflected back
Thorns grow up where there was green
All sorrow, shame and broken things

Paradise has barred its doors
Its guarded by the flaming swords
We can’t go back, we can’t go back

Chorus
We wait, we wait for You
Come with your light
We wait, we wait

Verse 2
A forest cut down by the axe
Like the end of the story, when it’s all turned to ash
But up from the stump, the bud of a flower
A seed of hope in the eleventh hour

And from the shadow the sun will rise
The people in darkness will see a great light
We’re longing, praying for the dawn

Chorus
We wait, we wait for You
Come with your light
We wait, we wait for You
Come with your light
We wait, we wait

Verse 3:
He takes the thorns upon His head
His body pierced, His arms outstretched
Says “It is finished,” and the sun went down
We laid His body in the ground

But life oh life comes bursting forth
And paradise swings wide its doors
Our King will rise to take His throne
And He will return to lead us home
To dry every tear and right every wrong
How long, O Lord? How long? How long?

Chorus 2:
We wait, we wait for You
Come with Your light
We wait, we wait for You
Come with Your light
We wait, we wait for You
Come with Your light
We wait, we wait for You
Come with Your light
We wait, we wait
We wait, we wait
We wait, we wait
For You
