Verse 1:
I was holding on with all my might
Just praying for a ray of light
Someone to hold me through the night
Verse 2:
When I thought that I had lost my mind
When I was all alone and it got too quiet
You never let me go, never left my side
Chorus:
‘Cause You’re with us while we wait
You’re with us while we wait
While we hope for better days
You’re with us while we wait
Verse 3:
There’s a peace for our anxiety
A comfort for our suffering
And a healing we have yet to see
Chorus:
But You’re with us whilе we wait
You’re with us while wе wait
While we hope for better days
You’re with us while we wait
Bridge:
You’re here in the center of all hopelessness
When little of our faith is left
You’re lifting up our weary heads
You’re here in the tension of the life that was
The here and now, the yet to come
And through it all Your promise stands
Chorus:
That You’re with us while we wait
You’re with us while we wait
While we hope for better days
You’re with us while we wait
