186 - Long For My Saviour I’ve Been Waiting

MIDI	MP3	Partition

1
Long for my Saviour I've been waiting,
Long time have watched by night and day;
Feared, lest my faith and hope abating,
I should lose courage by the way.

Refrain
Jesus soon is coming;
This is my song—
Cheers the heart when joys depart,
And foes are pressing strong.

2
Here in this vale of sin and sorrow
I have been wandering many years,
Still looking for that happy morrow
When God would wipe away my tears.

3
Oftimes the tempter comes in power,
Fain then would lead my steps astray;
But when the clouds begin to lower,
Hope turns the darkness into day.

4
O it will be but little longer
I must these many woes endure;
Then let my faith and hope grow stronger;
My Father's promise still is sure.
