Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

For so long I

Stood with my arms crossed 

Waiting for an answer to my prayers

Not realizing, everything I prayed for was right there

But my vision was clouded

By the storm on the rise

Too blinded to see what was right before my eyes

Oh it was right there  

Oh it was right there

Right there all the time


Waiting for me

My dreams are waiting for me

Waiting for me

My dreams are waiting on me


See If you're not careful

You can overlook the very place you?re standing in 

Wait let me say that again

Not long ago

You prayed to be in the very place you?re standing in

I wanna help you see it my friend   

Because I was that way 

Before I realized 

That my dreams may come in a different shape and size 

Oh it was right there 

Oh it was right there 

Right there all the time


To try again 

And just believe 

That the God we serve

He answers every plea 

Yes He does 


You can pray and pray

Like you should each day

And the answers still escape your sights

When what you need 

To live your dreams 

Starts with opening up your eyes to see


My Dreams are waiting on me

My dreams are waiting on me

My dreams are waiting on me


What God is doing

What God has done

How God keeps moving

And how you?ve already won

So if you get weary

Or the way seems unclear

Remember the favor and faith

That carried you here

To the dreams that you prayed for

And the blessings all around

Don?t you forget it in fact say this with me right now


I prayed for this moment

But forgot I prayed for it

Now that I remember

I wanna thank God for it
