When every tear is an ocean
And every hurt is a mountain
When the bullets are flying
And the bombs keep on falling
When there's fear all around me
And it feels like we're drowning
You are still on your throne
You are the only hope, so we won't let go
We will wait, we will wait, we will wait
We admit that we've stumbled
And we've all gone astray
It's like the whole world's got a cancer
And we die a little more everyday
And all the while there's an answer
And it's staring us right in the face
You are still on your throne
You are the only hope, so we won't let go
We will wait, we will wait, we will wait
As Your glory shines down
Every tongue will proclaim
You are still on Your throne
You are the only hope, so we won't let go
We will wait, we will wait, we will wait on You
Through sickness and pain
Through war and through loss
With our hands lifted high
