VERSE 1:
Out of the depths, O Lord, I cry to You
when I am tempted to despair.
Though I might fail to trust Your promises,
You never fail to hear my prayer.
And if You judged my sin,
I’d never stand again,
but I see mercy in Your hands.
CHORUS:
So more than watchmen for the morning,
I will wait for You, my God.
When my fears come with no warning,
in Your word I’ll put my trust.
When the harvest time is over, and I still see no fruit,
I will wait, I will wait for You.
VERSE 2:
The secret mysteries belong to You;
we only know what You reveal.
And all my questions that are unresolved
don’t change the wisdom of Your will.
In every trial and loss,
my hope is in the cross,
where Your compassions never fail.
CHORUS:
So more than watchmen for the morning,
I will wait for You, my God.
When my fears come with no warning,
in Your word I’ll put my trust.
When the harvest time is over, and I still see no fruit,
I will wait, I will wait for You.
Out of the depths, O Lord, I cry to You
when I am tempted to despair.
Though I might fail to trust Your promises,
You never fail to hear my prayer.
And if You judged my sin,
I’d never stand again,
but I see mercy in Your hands.
CHORUS:
So more than watchmen for the morning,
I will wait for You, my God.
When my fears come with no warning,
in Your word I’ll put my trust.
When the harvest time is over, and I still see no fruit,
I will wait, I will wait for You.
VERSE 2:
The secret mysteries belong to You;
we only know what You reveal.
And all my questions that are unresolved
don’t change the wisdom of Your will.
In every trial and loss,
my hope is in the cross,
where Your compassions never fail.
CHORUS:
So more than watchmen for the morning,
I will wait for You, my God.
When my fears come with no warning,
in Your word I’ll put my trust.
When the harvest time is over, and I still see no fruit,
I will wait, I will wait for You.
