Maintenance Day Song Lyrics

Wait

Words by Chris Ripley

Verse 1

Trying to be silent when all I want to do is talk,

Quiet and waiting though my mind is full of thoughts.

How can I hear you if I’m never listening?

Afraid of the answers my obedience will bring.

Chorus 1

So I’ll wait, I’ll wait to hear you

I’ll wait, I’ll wait for your voice

I’ll wait, I’ll wait in silence

I’ll wait to hear your words

Verse 2

Do I want to let you into the corners of my heart?

Give up all the sin that has kept us apart.

Can I soften though my hearts been petrified?

If I listen and seek – will I ever really find?

Chorus 1

So I’ll wait, I’ll wait to hear you

I’ll wait, I’ll wait for your voice

I’ll wait, I’ll wait in silence

I’ll wait to hear your words (repeat chorus)

Chorus 2

So I’ll wait – – –

I’ll wait – – –

Instrumental

Chorus 1

So I’ll wait, I’ll wait to hear you

I’ll wait, I’ll wait for your voice

I’ll wait, I’ll wait in silence

I’ll wait to hear your words

I’ll wait to hear you, wait for your voice

I’ll wait in silence…..
