Only Waiting

Verse 1

I am waiting for the morning Of the blessed day to dawn, When the sorrow and the darkness Of this changeful life are gone.

Chorus

I am waiting, only waiting, Till this weary life is o'er; Only waiting for my welcome, From my Saviour on the other shore.

Verse 2

I am waiting, worn and weary With the battle and the strife, Hoping, when the warfare's over, To receive a crown of life.

Verse 3

Waiting, hoping, trusting ever For a home of boundless love Like a pilgrim looking forward To the land of bliss above.

Verse 4

Hoping soon to meet the lov'd ones, Where the many mansions be; List'ning for the happy welcome Of my Saviour calling me.
