We Wait

Jesus is gone I cannot see him 
The Spirit comes 
Spirit mourns for Him 
The Lord is no longer on earth 

He is in heaven with His Father 
Yet I am here on earth 
The Spirit lives inside me 
The Spirit calls out Abba 

The Spirit reminds me of Jesus 
The Spirit reminds my heart 
My heart mourns for Jesus 
The Spirit in stills mourning for Jesus 

The Spirit helps me understand the Scriptures 
Spirit helps me interpret the times 
When will my Lord return? 
Why is He so long in coming? 

Must trust in the Father's timing 
Always trust, always hope 
The Spirit in stills patience 
Yet wait in silent mourns I do 

Abba Father I wait in silence and hope 
I wait in the Spirit for the Lord to return 
I wait in the Spirit for Jesus to return 
We wait in the heat of the day, and cool of the night 

We wait, we wait 
We wait, wait, and wait 

Yet we are not orphans 
The Lord did not leave us alone 
He sent the Spirit to live within us 
We are not alone
