This Time

What is this

gently piercing my heart?

Why is this aching so familiar?

I must confess

I long for You more

Strange as it seems



I'm faithlessly bored

Lord, You know I'm tired of

playing the prodigal



REFRAIN

'Cause it's been so long

Since my words broke through

It's been so long

Since I found a way

to touch You



CHORUS

But maybe this time

These words I pray

will make their way to You

So I'll wait a little longer

Maybe this time

I'll trust You

for the answers that I need

And resign myself to believeing

You love me

This time



Your reply sounds

of mercy & peace

This is why I'll wait

for You, Lord

One whisper of love is well

worth the wait

And so I'll keep praying



Watching & waiting

For one word from you

Lord hear the prayer from

this prodigal



REFRAIN:



REPEAT CHORUS
