Now, my heart cannot wait for it's final beat
Some fifty or sixty years down the road
However long the blood continues to flow
I cannot wait on the Lord to take me away
My impatient soul speaks louder than I
My unchained feet tire from the long run
Though he decides all the days of my working lungs
I cannot wait on the Lord to take me away
No, my eyes don't seek what this life may bring
No, my hands do not grab for all that he gives
Yes, he's given me one whole life to live
But I can't wait on the Lord to take me away
