Song Description
This song is about exemplifying God?s love towards those who curse Him and persecute His people, especially if we are among the persecuted.

Lyrics
WHILE I?M WAITING FOR YOU
Lord of heaven, Lord of earth
King of all the universe
Rightly trying the hearts of men
Your mercies endure to the end
Your judgments are righteous and true
So I?ll keep trusting you
While I?m waiting for you
Your enemies they curse your name
Still you give to them the rain
They persecute your righteous ones
That call upon the name of your Son
But justice will surely come due
But we must love our enemies while we?re waiting for?
You, could destroy the world with one fingers touch
You, really have the right to be angered much
But you just keep reaching out with your hand
With a love I don?t understand
Give me your love I don?t understand
Unending love for sinful man
O Lord I love you
Your only Son to us you gave
He died and He rose from the grave
That sinful men could be restored
If they call upon the name of the Lord
And turn from the sin that they do
That?s why I?m trusting you
While I?m waiting for you
