What Are We Waiting For? Lyrics
(Lyrics to the Full Album on one page)

RELATE

Has life hit you so hard that you've been knocked down?
Have you gone too far to find the middle ground?
Did they raise you so high just to pull you back down?
Have you been so lost you could never be found?

'Cause I've been real, I've been fake
Been a sinner, been a saint
I've been right, I've been so, so wrong
Yeah, I've made my mistakes

I don't know what it's like to be you
You don't know what it's like to be me
What if we're all the same in different kinds of ways?
Can you, can you relate?
We both know what it's like to be hurt
We both know what it's like to feel pain
But I think it's safe to say we're on to better days
Can you, can you relate?

Can you relate?

Have you ever been left when you should've been loved?
Has there ever been a time when you stayed but you should've run?

'Cause I've been real, I've been fake
Been a sinner, been a saint
I've been right, I've been so, so wrong
Yeah, I've made my mistakes

Now, I don't know what it's like to be you
You don't know what it's like to be me
What if we're all the same in different kinds of ways?
Can you, can you relate?
We both know what it's like to be hurt
We both know what it's like to feel pain
But I think it's safe to say we're on to better days
Can you, can you relate?

Can you relate?
Can you relate?
Can you relate?

I don't know what it's like to be you
You don't know what it's like to be me
But by the grace of God we'll see each other's heart
Can you, can you relate?

Broken Halos

Got up on this high horse
Couldn't find a way back down
Trying to find a true north
But everything's the wrong way round

Busy breaking down the walls, just to build up fences
Try to see the other side but no one's bending
We're way too shy to bare our souls
So we shout opinions, but nobody listens

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those
Broken halos (ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Broken halos

Untangle all the wires
Let's stretch out our dusty wings
Ooh, let's fly into the wild
And get a clearer view of everything

See the Technicolor grace, reaching over mountains
Showing there's another way, another way

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those
Broken halos (ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Broken halos (ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)

You will rise, you will rise, you will find your strength
You can soar, you can soar on the eagle's wings
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Don't you hang your head, don't you hang your head

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those

Oh, for heaven's sake (for heaven's sake)
We're missing hope (we're missing hope)
Been saving face (been saving face)
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes (take your mistakes)
Just let 'em go (just let them go)
'Cause don't we all wear those
Broken halos (ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Broken halos (ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Broken halos

Love Me Like I Am

I am a little unstable
Loose wires always getting tangled now
I am a little bit difficult
I can be a little self-critical now
I am a little unable
To put all my cards on the table now
But somehow You're still with me

It's amazing that You can
Love me like I am
And even when I can't
You still love me as I am
Oh, I don't know how You do it
And I know I put You through it
Yeah, it's amazing that You can
Love me like I
Love me like I

Am, ooh
You love me like I
Am, ooh
You love me like I
Am

I am a little uneven
In need of a little more healing now
Yes, I am (yes, I am)
And I feel a little unfixable
You're nothing short of a miracle now
'Cause somehow You're still with me

It's amazing that You can
Love me like I am
And even when I can't
You still love me as I am
Oh, I don't know how You do it
And I know I put You through it
Yeah, it's amazing that You can
Love me like I
Love me like I

Am, ooh
You love me like I
Am, ooh
You love me like I
Am, ooh
You love me like

It's amazing that You can
Love me like I am
Even when I can't
You still love me as I am
Yeah, I don't know how You do it
And I know I've put You through it
Yeah, it's amazing that You can
Love me like I
Love me like I am

Unity

(Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah)
(Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah)

I wouldn't deny you if you asked me
I'd rather die than to blaspheme
But if I need a ride in your back seat
Will you be there for me?

See me on the path on your way home
Might need a mattress to sleep on
But if I'm gone at dawn, would it be wrong?
Will you be there for me?

Will you walk with me down a lonely street?
Talk to me, tell me what you see
Stand by me so the world will see
You and me in unity

Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity

I will be the heart when the beat stops
Be the light when the sun drops
I'm hopin' on the stars through the tree tops
That you'll be there for me

Will you walk with me down a lonely street?
Talk to me, tell me what you see
Stand by me so the world will see
You and me in unity
Walk with me down a lonely street
Talk to me, tell me what you see
Stand by me so the world will see
You and me in unity (hey)

Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah

Save us from this madness
Heal us from this sadness
Lead us to what matters
Closer to You
Save us from this madness
Heal us from this sadness
Lead us to what matters
Closer to You

Will you walk with me down a lonely street?
Talk to me, tell me what you see
Stand by me so the world will see
You and me in unity
Walk with me down a lonely street
Talk to me, tell me what you see
Stand by me so the world will see
You and me in unity

Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
You and me in unity
Ay yah, ay yah, ay yah
Do you believe in unity?

For God Is With Us

Dare to imagine
Dare to believe in
A true love that gave us
A brand new beginning

No room for a king
No celebration and no ceremony
In that little town no, nobody would think
This is the story of the coming glory

Can you hear the prayers that people prayed?
Can you see the skies begin to break?
When Heaven and Earth were face-to-face
Oh, how the world forever changed

For God is with us
Oh
God is with us
Oh

All in the moment
All in an instant
The body was broken
And it was finished

So let us begin
The celebration and the ceremony
There's silence on Earth but the Heavens are roarin'
Tellin' the story of the coming glory

Can you feel your heart begin to race?
Can you see the tide begin to change?
With all of our futures rearranged
The world will never be the same

For God is with us
Oh
God is with us
Oh
For God is with us
Oh, can you see, oh, can you see (oh)
God is with us
Oh, can you hear, oh, can you hear (oh)
For God is with us

Dare to imagine
Dare to believe in
A true love that gave us
A reason for living

Can you feel the hope that's rushin' in?
Can you hear the song that's echoin'?
Join with the choir as we sing
This is where love truly begins

For God is with us
Oh
God is with us
Oh
For God is with us
Oh, can you see, oh, can you see (oh)
God is with us
Oh, can you hear, oh, can you hear (oh)
For God is with us

Oh, can you see, oh, can you see
God is with us

Hold On Pain Ends

She was a lover and daughter of kings
She lost her voice and forgot how to sing
Head full of dreams and a heart full of life
All disappeared in the blink of an eye

Breathe in and breathe out
I know it hurts now
Pray through the waiting
Hold on, pain ends

Hope when it's all gone
Hope when it's all wrong
Nothing is wasted
Hold on, pain ends
(Woo ooh, woo ooh, woo ooh)
Hold on, pain ends

He was a gentleman, heart full of gold
He lost the truth with the lies he was sold
The ones that he trusted became enemies
His whole world was shaken, he dropped to his knees

Breathe in and breathe out
I know it hurts now
Pray through the waiting
Hold on, pain ends

Hope when it's all gone
Hope when it's all wrong (hope when it's all wrong)
Nothing is wasted
Hold on, pain ends
(Woo ooh, woo ooh, woo ooh)
Hold on, pain ends
(Woo ooh, woo ooh, woo ooh)
Hold on, pain ends

When it's hard to say amen
And it doesn't go as planned
When it's more than you can stand
You can hold on to me then

Breathe in and breathe out
I know it hurts now
Pray through the waiting (won't you)
Hold on, pain ends

Hope when it's all gone
Hope when it's all wrong (when it's all wrong)
Nothing is wasted
Hold on, pain ends

Breathe in and breathe out (breathe in and breathe it out)
I know it hurts now (I know it hurts you now)
Pray through the waiting
(Just) hold on, pain ends

Hope when it's all gone (hope when it's all gone) (is all gone)
Hope when it's all wrong (hope when it's all wrong)
Nothing is wasted
(Just) hold on, pain ends
(Woo ooh, woo ooh, woo ooh)
Hold on, pain ends
(Woo ooh) hold on, hold on, yeah
(Woo ooh) hold on, hold on, oh
(Woo ooh) hold on, hold on, yeah
Hold on, pain ends

Unsung Hero

Once upon a time, you were twenty-five
Walking up the aisle, you made the promise of your life
Blinked twice and you were twenty-nine
Singing lullabies, and I looked up at you for the first time

Words fall short but I am sure
There'll never be anyone like you

You're, you're strong like your father even when you are scared
When I was in trouble, you never left me there
And you love like your mother, like there's nothing to lose
You're an unsung hero, so I'll sing this song for you

Woke up, I was twenty-one, and I fell in love
Remember how I told you that I'd
Searched the world and I found the girl
And oh, how she reminds me of you

You're strong like your father even when you are scared
When I was in trouble, you never left me there
And you love like your mother, like there's nothing to lose
You're an unsung hero, so I'll sing this song for you

For all the times I fell down, you showed me how to stand
And when we crossed the ocean, you were my safe place to land
Been on a thousand stages, but when it's all said and done
I hope I make you proud of, of the man that I've become

To be strong like my father even when I am scared
And when someone's in trouble, I'll never leave them there
And I'll love like my mother, like there's nothing to lose
You're my unsung hero, and I sing this song for you

Harmony

Just the way that You taught us
Sing our songs
Our melodies
In harmony
Just the way that You taught us
Sing our songs
Our melodies
In harmony
Just the way that You taught us, now
Just the way that You taught us

Shy

(Shy)
Something's been missing
Oh, I
I tried not to listen
Oh, I

And I heard you calling
From across the line
I kept you at a distance
Oh, I

It's a long way around to the other side
Yeah, I feel that pull, yeah I can't deny
It's a long way around to the other side
But I wanna be free wanna give my life

You've been waiting on me long enough
And there's no going back this time
I feel the fire in me rising up
I'm not gonna be shy

When the world is tryna cut me out
And the fear is running through my mind
You won't see me backing down
I'm not gonna be shy

In the name, in the name
In the name of Love
I'm not gonna be shy

I'll be the difference
Oh, I
I'll go the distance
Oh, I

It's a long way around to the other side
Yeah, I feel that pull, yeah I can't deny
It's a long way around to the other side
But I wanna be free wanna give my life

You've been waiting on me long enough
And there's no going back this time
I feel the fire in me rising up
I'm not gonna be shy

When the world is tryna cut me out
And the fear is running through my mind
You won't see me backing down
I'm not gonna be shy

In the name, in the name
In the name of Love
I'm not gonna be shy

In the name, in the name
In the name of Love
I'm not gonna be shy

In the name, in the name
In the name of Love
You won't see me backing down

In the name, in the name
In the name of Love
I'm not gonna be shy (I'm not gonna be shy)
(Shy)
I'm not gonna be shy

TOGETHER

This is for the busted heart
This is for the question marks
This is for the outcast soul
Lost control, no one knows
Sing it for the can't-go-back
Sing it for the broken past
Sing it for the just found out
Life is now upside down

If you're lookin' for hope tonight, raise your hand
If you feelin' alone and don't understand
If you're fightin' in the fight of your life, then stand
We're gonna make it through this hand-in-hand

And if we fall
We will fall together
Together

This is for the second chance
This is for the new romance
Sing it for the loved in vain
Overcame, it's not too late

If you're lookin' for hope tonight, raise your hand
If you feelin' alone and don't understand
If you're fightin' in the fight of your life, then stand
We're gonna make it through this hand-in-hand

And if we fall
We will fall together
Together (oh)
And when we rise
We will rise together
Together (ooh)

(Ohh, ohh, ohh) Oh
(Ohh-oh, ohh-oh) We will rise together
Yes (ooh), listen

If you're lookin' for hope tonight (and you're all alone)
If you're feelin' alone tonight (and you feel)
If you're in the fight of your life (I can promise)
We're gonna make it happen and (oh yeah)
I will be by your side (by your side)
'Cause love is in the air tonight (can you feel it?)
I'll help you see the light (come on)
Whenever, ever, ever, just as long as we're together, say

If we fall (fall)
We will fall together (ha ha, I got you, my brother)
Together (I see you my sister)
And when we rise
We will rise together
Together

If we fall (if we fall)
We will fall together (take my hand)
Together (come and stand)
When we rise (when we rise)
We will rise together (we will rise together)
Together (that's all)

Together we are dangerous
Together with our differences
Together we are bolder, braver, stronger

Seasons

Thought I knew how love was supposed to feel
But then you changed my mind and made it real
Looking back on all that we've been through
I wouldn't change a single day with you

It's not always easy
But look how far we've come
I'm never leaving
'Cause

On the day that I met you
You knew that I knew
When I said that I choose you
You know I still do
I love it how we dance through the fire
I love it how we sing in the rain
As long as I'm breathing
I'll be yours through the seasons

Your love is like the spring
It brings me light
Your heart is like the walk of a summer night

Oh, I know
It's not always easy
But when the winter comes
I will always believe in
Us

On the day that I met you
You knew that I knew
When I said that I choose you
You know I still do
I love it how we dance through the fire
I love it how we sing in the rain
As long as I'm breathing
I'll be yours through the seasons

Day after day
Night after night
I will be yours
You will mine
Bring on the lows
Bring on the highs

Day after day
Night after night
I will be yours
You will mine
Bring on the lows
Bring on the highs

Oh, I know
It won't always be easy
But look how far we've come
And I'm never leaving
'Cause

On the day that I met you (I met you)
You knew that I knew (that I knew)
When I said that I choose you
You know I still do
I love it how we dance through the fire (dance through the fire)
I love it how we sing in the rain (sing in the rain)
As long as I'm breathing (as long as I'm breathing)
I'll be yours through the seasons

Day after day
Night after night
I will be yours
You will mine
Bring on the lows
Bring on the highs

I'll be yours through the seasons

Day after day
Night after night
I will be yours
You will mine
Bring on the lows
Bring on the highs

I'll be yours through the seasons

Cheering You On

There are days when you feel life is inside out
There are nights when your mind doesn't wanna settle down
You're in between who you are and who you wanna be
And while you work it out and what it all could mean
I pray you'll be

Gracious in the fight of it
Humble at the height of it
Choose to love in spite of it all
And when you're questioning the why of it
Rise up in the light of it
I'll be by your side in it all
I'm cheering you on

When you win, when you lose every chance that you take
If you bend, if you break you'll be loved anyway
And when you've had enough, no, don't you dare give up
I pray you'll be

Gracious in the fight of it
Humble at the height of it
Choose to love in spite of it all
And when you're questioning the why of it
Rise up in the light of it
I'll be by your side in it all
I'm cheering you on

Oh oh
I'm cheering you on and on and on
Oh oh

I'll be cheering you on when no one else will
I'll be cheering you on as you run your race
And at the end when it is finished
May they say you were

Gracious in the fight of it
Humble at the height of it
Choose to love in spite of it all
And when you're questioning the why of it
Rise up in the light of it
I'll be by your side in it all
I'm cheering you on

Oh oh
I'm cheering you on and on and on
Oh oh
I'm cheering you on
Oh oh
I'm cheering you on

Benediction

If You can hold the universe
Then You can hold me too
If You can form the human heart
Then You can mend it too
If You could love Your enemies
I'll love them as myself
And if You gave Your life for us
Then I'll give mine as well

With all my mind, with all my strength
I want to be just like You
In all my days, in all my ways
I want to be just like You

If You could see the sparrow
Then You can see me too
If You could save a sinner's soul
Then You can heal me too
And if You're close to those who mourn
I know You're here with me
And so I say Your will be done
For all eternity

With all my mind, with all my strength
I want to be just like You
In all my days, in all my ways
I want to be just like You
I want to be just like You
