The Earth Waits Lyrics

In a broken land the wells of love run dry
In a frozen place the hurts are left to cry
But if we live in shame
All that can grow is pain
Filling our hearts and minds
To hide You from our sight

Yet the calling voice is clear to one and all
To be on our guard and ready for the fall
So why do we stand tonight
Lost in the dead of night
Hearing the distant voices crying in the storm?

As the earth waits, as the earth waits As the earth waits for your coming Lord
As the earth waits, as the earth waits
As the earth waits for your coming Lord

When I listen to the words of long ago
It is clear that we've forgotten all we've known
Let us set aside the night
And put on the arms of light
And wait for the dawn to come
For day will soon be here!

And the earth waits, and the earth waits
