Wait For The Lord’s Anointed
Verse 1
Children of promise, walking in darkness Bearing the weight and chains of your sins Just as was spoken, bonds will be broken All your transgressions, God will forgive See how a great light breaks through the midnight When your deliv’rer comes to be born.
Wait, wait, wait for the Lord’s anointed. Wait, wait, wait for Messiah to come.
Verse 2
Behold the promise, He dwelt among us Lord of creation in flesh arrayed Bound up the broken, tore down the curtain He died our death then rose from the grave Undeserved pardon brought by the God-man What joyous news we sing to the world!
Grace, grace, grace by the Lord’s anointed. Grace, grace, grace for Messiah has come.
Verse 3
Children of promise, groaning in anguish, Give to the Lord your worries and cares. With all creation, wait for redemption; All will be right when Jesus appears Lift up your eyes and look for the sunrise Do not lose hope though time trudges on!
Wait, wait, wait for the Lord’s anointed. Wait, wait, wait for Messiah to come.
Verse 4
Then with rejoicing, we’ll live in glory, Walking with Jesus all of our days, Mysteries ended, hearts will be mended, Sorrows erased our tears wiped away. We will forever worship the Savior Singing the glories of Jesus’ name!
Praise, praise, praise to the Lord’s anointed! Praise, praise, praise for Messiah has come!
