I Will Wait

I always find myself so out of time.

Always too busy with other things

Always managing to meet with other people

But so easily forgetting the most important part of who I am

I can spend two hours easy taking the time to get ready

Enough makeup to cover up what’s really going on.

Put on my Christian face and clothes

So that no one will question my motives

Ready to go out and play the Christian card

When I haven’t even spoke to my Christ

Saying what feels Right

Doing what looks good

When inside I am hurting

How I want to know you intimately

How I want to understand your ways

How I NEED to know your love.

But it’s just too much to ask that I would seek you every day.

Do you not know I’m busy?

With my plans, my time, my life

Your way and mine is that so crazy?

But now the speed of life has slowed down

I just don’t understand

There is no one here

Expect you holding my hand

It’s you and only you who is standing around

Because only you saved me from myself

I can see that everything else is dead

And it’s only you giving me life

So now I understand

Now I finally see

How could I be so stupid?

How could I not want to be so gloriously free?

So I will wait for you

Daily I will seek

For you alone can rescue

You alone can save

So I will wait here at the cross

I will wait here at the cross

I will wait here at the cross
