When I am grown battle-weary,
I pray for God to hear me.
Then he lifts me in his hand,
Let`s me glimpse the promised land.
Waitin`, waitin`, waitin`, waitin`,
Waitin` on the other side.
Out of sin and misery
Well, Jesus lead a victory,
Where death and pain no more annoys us
Life eternal, ever joyous.
Waitin`, waitin`, waitin`, waitin`,
Waitin` on the other side.
Ain`t no matter what I`ve done,
God forgave me through his Son;
Jesus by his blood has sworn,
We can all be new men born.
Waitin`, waitin`, waitin`, waitin`,
Waitin` on the other side.
On faith I take his mysteries,
Distrust and doubt ain`t halting me;
The wisdom in God`s plan is shown,
When we stand before his throne.
Waitin`, waitin`, waitin`, waitin`,
Waitin` on the other side.
I have loved ones who`ve gone on,
Rejoicing now midst Heaven`s throng;
With all Heaven welcome me,
When I march home in victory.
Waitin`, waitin`, waitin`, waitin`,
Waitin` on the other side.
