Here I stand, longing for my Lord
Life is a mystery, changes from day to day, I'm happy and then I am sad
Sometimes I wonder why I am so worried and troubled and feeling so bad
I know Jesus is never far away, standing by, waiting for my call
So here I stand, longing for my Lord
Seems only yesterday, I was so far away, lost in the worldly allure
Then Jesus came to me, washed all my sins away, carried my burdens and more
I know Jesus is never far away, standing by, waiting for my call
So here I stand, longing for my Lord, Longing for my Lord
I am waiting for the coming of the Lord
As He has promised us in His own Holy words
Trumpets sound, and He'll descend
The angels shout, and all the world rejoice
So here I stand, longing for my Lord
So if you are wondering why, I am so happy, and seeming no cares in the world
Jesus has saved my life, graciously paid the price, died on the cross for us all
I know Jesus is never far away, standing by, waiting for your call
So here I stand
Longing for my Lord
Longing for my Lord
Longing for my Lord
I'm longing for my Lord
