I�m waiting for Thee, Lord,
Thy beauty to see, Lord,
I�m waiting for Thee,
for Thy coming again.
Thou�rt gone over there, Lord,
A place to prepare, Lord,
Thy home I shall share
at Thy coming again.
�Mid danger and fear, Lord,
I�m oft weary here, Lord;
The day must be near
of Thy coming again
�Tis all sunshine there, Lord,
No sighing or care, Lord,
But glory so fair
at Thy coming again.
Whilst Thou art away, Lord,
I stumble and stray, Lord;
O hasten the day
of Thy coming again!
This is not my rest, Lord;
A pilgrim confest, Lord,
I wait to be blest
at Thy coming again.
Our loved ones before, Lord,
Their troubles are o�er, Lord,
I�ll meet them once more
at Thy coming again.
The blood was the sign, Lord,
That marked them as Thine, Lord,
And brightly they�ll shine
at Thy coming again.
E�en now let my ways, Lord,
Be bright with Thy praise, Lord,
For brief are the days
ere Thy coming again.
I�m waiting for Thee, Lord,
Thy beauty to see, Lord,
No triumph for me
like Thy coming again!
