Jesus Is Waiting

If every person in this world 
Would take the time to see 
The beauty that God created 
How amazing this would be.

The sun in all its brightness 
He made to light the day 
The moon and all the countless stars
 At night to lead your way.

The majesty of mountains 
The golden fields of grain 
The sweetness of a bird’s song 
A rainbow after rain.

The rustling of the leaves of trees
 The slightest breath of wind 
Are these just God’s reminders 
Of the love He wants to send?

So if you don’t know Jesus 
But you want Him in your heart 
He doesn’t want to lose you
 So you must do your part.

He’s always there and waiting
 He’s listening for your voice 
He wants to be your Savior 
But He lets you make the choice.

He only wants what’s best for you
 And He wants you for His own
 To live with Him in glory
 To share His heavenly home.

So when you feel a yearning 
For something more you need 
Jesus is holding out His hand
 Just reach for it, He’ll lead.

All sins will be forgiven 
And you can start anew 
If only you will just believe
 That Jesus died for you.

That God His Holy Father
 Raised Him from the dead 
Now He lives and reigns in heaven 
Just as the scriptures said.

Your life will be completely changed
 When you are born anew
 Because you have His promise 
That He'll come back for you.

This life on earth is nothing
 Compared to what’s in store 
You can’t begin to comprehend 
What God planned long before.

No more tears or pain or sorrow
 Will you ever have to face 
When at last you make it home 
To dwell in God’s own grace.

You’ll meet your Savior face to face
 And kneel before His throne 
To worship Him forever 
In your everlasting home.
