I'll Keep Waiting ©

I keep waiting
I keep waiting
Waiting on God to rescue me

I keep waiting
I keep waiting
Waiting on God to rescue me

He promised to help me
He promised to help me
Never to leave or forsake me

So I keep waiting
I keep waiting
Waiting on God to set me free

Abused as a child by the preacher
Neglected by my momma
Beaten by my husband

But I'll keep waiting
I'll keep waiting
Waiting on God to rescue me

Used and abused by men
seemed to be forgotten
But I keep waiting

Second husband worse than the first
sent by God
that really hurts

He promised to reward me for all my pain
and my life will never be the same

So I keep waiting
I keep waiting
Waiting on God to rescue me

Sickly children and poor health
He never left me by myself
Reached out and touched me with his tender hand

So I'll keep waiting
Keep right on waiting
Waiting on God to rescue me

He promised me that if I suffer with him
then I'll reign with him
So I'll keep waiting on the Lord to rescue me

I know after all the suffering and pain
God will show me his plan
he promised me my due season

So I'll keep waiting
I'll keep waiting
Waiting on God to rescue me

All the days of my appointed time
will I wait till my change comes

So I'll keep waiting
Keep right on waiting
Waiting on my change to come
