Lindsay McCaul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I waited for You there to speak again
I have felt Your love in my darkest night
But I'm longing for the day when my faith is sight
So now all I'm waiting for is to see Your face
Open heaven's door and take my breath away
I'll look into Your eyes and forever stay in that moment
Every morning sky brings a rising sun
And my anxious heart knows with every one
This could be the day You have promised me
Take me in Your arms for all eternity
Every day in history
Soon will be rolled up like a scroll
In Your presence finally
I will stand before You healed and whole
So now all I'm waiting for is to see Your face
Open heaven's door, take my breath away
I'll look into Your eyes, be forever changed
In that moment I see Your face
