Lyrics
I'll be waiting Here
I know your heart must be hurting
Longing for answers, endlessly searching
Don't lose faith now
Not when you've come so far
I'm sorry I left in such a hurry
But I want you to know you don't have to worry
I'm safe and sound
Here in the father's arms
I'll be waiting here
Someday we'll be together
I'll be waiting here
Until you come home
When your work on earth is through
I'll still be here waiting for you
Only the Lord can bring healing
And only his love can dull the pain that you're feeling
If you reach out
I know he'll comfort you
And I'll be waiting here
Someday we'll be together
I'll be waiting here
Until you come home
When your work on earth is through
I'll still be here waiting for you
Repeat Chorus
Tag: When your work on earth is through
I'll still be here waiting for you
