Lyrics
When all the waiting comes to an end, and turns to grieving
When all these tears end in a way that no way has been made clear
When anguish has come to our home and filled our hearts
You know, You know sorrow
When all the waiting comes to an end, and we’re left empty
When good desire bears bitter fruit, we cry out in longing
For a day with no grief or weight
with no pain or sorrow
When all the waiting comes to an end, and ends in silence
When all our hoping ends in a death of a dream held in our hearts
Do You know, do You know our pain? Do You know all the ways?
All the weight? All the ways? All the pain?
All the weight of the world in sorrow?
When all the waiting comes to an end, and we’re still living
Though the darkness is strong, and the night stretches long
‘Remember,’ we say together, ‘remember:
God walks with us slowly in our sorrow
through our sorrow’
