oh oh the time oh the time is coming when all that's hidden will be revealed oh oh the time oh the time is coming when all of the wounds shall be healed oh oh how long oh how long i've waited for that kind of peace to wash o'er me oh oh how long oh how long i've waited but what is it that i see before me the cruelty of life is real the fear that it will be taken without warning the frailty of life i feel that it can all be gone by morning... oh oh i'll keep oh i'll keep on waiting save us from ruin and our distress oh oh i'll keep oh i'll keep on waiting save us forgive us our trespasses
