I've Been A Waitin'

By the Sounds Of Grace Senior Choir
At the Evening Service October 9, 2005

[Verse 1]
Many years I've traveled on this weary road,
Watched the fleeting changes, tried to share some load;
Now my work is finished, steps are mighty slow,
I've been waitin' Lord to go.

[Chorus]
I've been waitin', waitin' on this shore,
Long I've traveled, ain't a gonna travel no more;
Shades of ev'ning falling steps are gettin' slow,
I've been waitin' Lord to go.

[Verse 2]
Feel a little weary, sight a gettin' dim,
But I have my Savior, I can trust in Him;
Many friends are yonder by the rivers' flow,
I've been waitin' Lord to go.

[Chorus]
I've been waitin', waitin' on this shore,
Long I've traveled, ain't a gonna travel no more;
Shades of ev'ning falling steps are gettin' slow,
I've been waitin' Lord to go.

[Verse 3]
Come a little closer snow-white angel band,
While I cross the river to that better land;
Open wide the portals, play a little slow,
I've been waitin' Lord to go.

[Chorus]
I've been waitin', waitin' on this shore,
Long I've traveled, ain't a gonna travel no more;
Shades of ev'ning falling steps are gettin' slow,
I've been waitin' Lord to go.
