Lyrics
Waiting
Copyright ~ Bill Ballantyne August /2001
Verse1
You... all alone in a crowd longing for true love.
You... you're heart is torn, you've felt the scorn, hope forlorn, I know.
Chorus1
And I've been waiting so long
For you to be right here with Me, where you belong.
Verse2
You... where to start, with a hardened heart? We're apart, do you care?
You... you've wondered and tried, wandered and lied, simply died inside.
Chorus1
And I've been waiting so long
For you to be right here with Me, where you belong.
Bridge
All I can do is wait on you, My hands are tied by your will
I'm calling again please listen to Me, I'm waiting for you still... still
Verse3
You... mean everything, the reason I sing, the joy you bring to Me.
You... are precious to Me, oh can't you see, you need to be with Me.
Chorus2
And I've been waiting so long
For you to be right here with Me, where you belong.
And I've been waiting on the edge of My Throne
Waiting here for you to... come home... come home... come home
