I have longed to meet with you
I have longed to see your face
I have waited all this time
To be here with you
And to find the secret place
When I¹m weary from the road
And I feel my strength has gone
Take from me this heavy load
Let me rest in you where my heart can be made strong
How long oh Lord must I wait for you?
Hear me calling to you
Lord in your mercy answer me
Hear me calling to you
Your presence oh Lord is what I need
Your presence oh Lord is life to me
Your faithfulness has brought me here
To the sanctuary of your love
In the quiet I have learned
To be faithful too and to find the secret place
How long oh Lord must I wait for you?
Hear me calling to you
Lord in your mercy answer me
Hear me calling to you
Your presence oh Lord is what I need
Your presence oh Lord is life to me
I will wait, I will wait
I will wait for You my God
I will trust, I will trust
I will trust in You my Lord
Your presence oh Lord is what I need
Your presence oh Lord is life to me
