Right now all I can taste are bitter tears
And right now all I can see are clouds of sorrow
From the other side of all this pain
Is that you I hear?
Laughing loud and calling out to me?

Saying see, it’s everything you said that it would be
And even better than you would believe
And I’m counting down the days until you’re here with me
And finally you’ll see

But right now all I can say is, “Lord, how long?”
Before You come and take away this aching
This night of weeping seems to have no end
But when the morning light breaks through
We’ll open up our eyes and we will see

It’s everything He said that it would be
And even better than we would believe
And He’s counting down the days till He says, “Come with me”
And finally…

He’ll wipe every tear from our eyes
And make everything new
Just like He promised

Wait and see
Just wait and see
Wait and see

And I’m counting down the days until I see
It’s everything He said that it would be
And even better than we would believe
And I’m counting down the days till He says, “Come with me”
And finally, we’ll see

Wait and see
O taste and see that the Lord is good
The Lord is good
The Lord is good
O taste and see that the Lord is good
The Lord is good
