From the recording Close At Hand
Lyrics
Calling out
Echoing across the midnight sky
A lonely sound
The only voice that I've been given
Turning stars
Waiting for the sunlight again
The break of day
It's been so long since you've been here
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
When the night is long and my strength is gone
I'll hold on till the light breaks through
And I will wait for you
Aching hands
A white-knuckled grip upon my soul
Just don't let go
Keep on watching the horizon
O my Lord
It feels like I could crash and burn tonight
But your promises
Are giving me the strength I need
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
When the night is long and my strength is gone
I'll hold on till the light breaks through
And I will wait for you
Shine down on me tonight
The galaxy is beautiful and bright
I’ve been living in the darkness
And it’s changing how I see the light
I'm going to be a different man tomorrow
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
When the night is long and my strength is gone
I'll hold on till the light breaks through
And I will wait for you
I will wait for you
When the night is long and my strength is gone
I'll hold on till the light breaks through
And I will wait for you
