Waiting, he's waiting, grieve him no more

Author: Martha J. Lankton Hymnal: Our Praise in Song #31 (1893) First Line: Why will you roam far from your home Lyrics: 1 Why will you roam far from your home, Over the dark mountain's brow? Why will you die? Jesus is nigh. Waiting to save you now. Refrain: Waiting, he's waiting, Grieve him no more away: Waiting, waiting. Why will you longer stay? 2 Come as you are, burdened with care, Lonely and sorrow-oppressed; Why do you fear? Jesus is here, Waiting to give you rest. [Refrain] 3 Grace if you spurn where will you turn? What will become of your soul? Haste while you may, do not delay, Jesus will make you whole. [Refrain] 4 Waiting he stands, reaching his hands, Freely his blessing to give; Only believe, ask and receive, Look unto him and live. [Refrain] Languages: English
