1 Jesus, I am waiting now,
Weary, worn and weak;
At the cross I’m bending low,
Peace and rest I seek.

Refrain:
Jesus, I am waiting now,
Longing to be blest;
Speak the blessed words to me,
Come, I’ll give thee rest.

2 Long I’ve wandered far from Thee,
In the paths of sin;
Let my sorrow plead for me,
Jesus, take me in. [Refrain]

3 Chase my heart’s unrest away,
Bid its trembling cease;
Let me feel Thy love today,
Give me Thy sweet peace. [Refrain]
