Oh my Jesus Christ,
Will you bring me back to life?
Can you lead me to an afterlife that I would like?
Oh my Savior of the Meek,
can you teach me how to speak?
Can you teach me how to love myself when I am weak?
They will pray
They will pray
They will pray, but if you listen you will hear me say:
I will wait
I will wait
I will wait for you to swing below and take me away.
Oh my Lord of Love,
Where are you hiding far above?
Min7
Why donât you come to me and show me what I ask you of?
Oh E-mman-u-el,
will you guide my way?
Did you see, but do you understand how far I fell?
They will pray
They will pray
Dim
They will pray, but if you listen you will hear me say:
I will wait
I will wait
I will wait for you to swing below and take me away.
Oh my Righteous Man,
will you give me solid land?
Will you give my own the greatest gift so we may stand?
Oh my End of Days,
am I headed for a path
that will lead me to the mouth of everlasting pain?
They will pray
They will pray
They will pray, but if you listen, Lord, youâll hear me say:
I will wait
I will wait
I will wait for you to swing below
and take me away.
