Waiting on the sunrise, I am waiting on the day
When all the colors I have painted with will soon be washed away.
Would you meet me in the morning? Wake me up before the dawn.
Light a candle in my room to tell all my friends I’ve gone.
I am waiting. Waiting.
She blew in from out of nowhere like a Kansas City wind
and wrote the songs we could not sing, she taught us how to pray again
But they burned her from both ends, her candle would not last the night
“It’s such a shame”, said all her foes and friends, she gave such a lovely light
Is she still waiting? *
Chorus:
When the last bell sounds and the Angel gives the word
When You come to claim Your Bride, will you find faith upon the earth?
Oh, come catch us in the act, like a thief in the night.
Fill our souls with the calm assurance everything will be alright.
Find me waiting.
Still we flood the seas with poison, and take children by the arm
The present state of affairs gives us no cause for alarm
And some would say it’s better, it means He’s returning soon.
So go ahead, pile up the garbage. We will desecrate the moon!
But that’s not waiting.
Chorus:
When the last bell sounds and the Angel gives the word
When You come to claim Your Bride, will you find faith upon the earth?
Oh, come catch us in the act, like a thief in the night.
Fill our souls with the calm assurance everything will be alright
Find me waiting.
Bridge:
But the hardest part of waiting, well it just might be the waiting.
And I can’t just go on like this forever. Lord don’t leave me waiting.
So come pronounce the final verdict at the evening of the day
‘Cause If You don’t find me waiting, it won’t matter anyway.
‘til then wash us with the blood of Christ, and fill us with your breath
There’s still many miles to go before we lay our heads to rest.
Find me waiting.
