Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Very soon the day will come
When I'll be with You
Forever and always
Your love I'll never lose
And no one will come between
This heart and soul foundation
And even though Your face I've never seen
I'll hold Your words inside
I'll wait for You
[Chorus:]
I'll wait for You
Until You return for me
I'll wait faithful
Better believe I will
I've been told that I'm a fool
They say Your love's not real
But I believe with all my heart
That's why I'm standing still
Whenever I get the chance
I'll show them Your compassion
And I know You want the world to plainly see
How Your love changed my life
[Chorus]
Day and night I'll read Your letters of love
Cause there is nothing stronger
Then Your Word
In my heart
And I know
Soon we'll never be apart
