I Still Wait - Mikhail Bennett/Spalexma

Your room is silent, Lord

But you still hear my cry

I taught him how to pray

Before you learned goodbye

The road took him from truth, from home, from me

Yet your word says the lost are never out of reach

I still wait, my son

With a lamp burning bright

Like the father on the road every sleepless night

And my body grows weaker, my faith stands tall

You promised what's lost will answer your call

Even if my eyes don't see the end

I trust you, God, I'll see my son again

My hair's all thinner now

The mirror shows the years

Each step is hard

But I kneel the same in tears

I read your promises

My candle fading flame

I speak your name to you

You never turned away

That I don't walk the road

To meet him face to face

And let my last breath trust your time

Your grace

I still wait, my son

With a lamp burning bright

Like the father on the road every sleepless night

And my body grows weaker, my faith stands tall

You promised what's lost will answer your call

Even if my eyes don't see the end

I trust you, God, I'll see my son again

The door stays open

Grace still runs

I wait
