Hey God, it's me
I've been lost a little while
Walking all these miles
And I'm in need
Of some direction
'Cause down here it's getting hard
I've been searching near and far
Help me believe

You wait for me
If I'm taking the long way home
Stuck on the same old dead-end road
I wanna leave the life I know
But when I just can't let go

You wait for me
You keep on holding on
'Cause Heaven knows I'm not that strong
I'm sorry it took so long
I was taking the long way home
But You wait for me
Oh, You wait for me, oh

Oh, now I see
I should've asked You years ago
But my heart was full of stone
And disbelief
But You were patient
While You washed away my doubt
When You laid that road map out
Your path was straighter
You wait for me
If I'm taking the long way home
Stuck on the same old dead-end road
I wanna leave the life I know
But when I just can't let go

You wait for me
You keep on holding on
'Cause Heaven knows I'm not that strong
I'm sorry it took so long
I was taking the long way home
But You wait for me
Oh, You wait for me

Every twist and every turn
Every lesson that I learn
Every step I take, You always make a way
If I stumble and I fall
If my walk becomes a crawl
You carry me when I can't find my strength
You wait for me
You wait for me

Oh, You wait for me
If I'm taking the long way home
(Long way home)
Stuck on the same old dead-end road
I wanna leave the life I know
But when I just can't let go
(When I can't let go)
You wait for me
You keep on holding on
'Cause Heaven knows I'm not that strong
I'm sorry it took so long
I was taking the long way home
But You wait for me

Oh, You wait for me
You wait for me
You wait for me
