Forty One Lyrics

Well, it's been a while and I'm still waiting
And if I'm being honest, I'm getting tired of praying
When nothing's shifting, mm-mm
Where are You, are You listening?

I've read about the days and nights, they wandered
Aimless in the wilderness, asking how much longer
'Til they'd see it, mm-mm
Will I ever see it?

If You could keep a promise
After forty years of wandering
When the answers felt like secrets
But You always have your reasons
'Cause You're not in the business
Of keeping things unfinished
While You're preparing something
My waiting's not for nothing
'Cause forty one is coming
Forty one is coming

So, if it's not Your timing, then don't change it
Just promise You'll be with me every minute that I face it
I might be tired, mm-mm-mm
But I know Your ways are higher

If You could keep a promise
After forty years of wandering
When the answers felt like secrets
But You always have your reasons
'Cause You're not in the business
Of keeping things unfinished
While You're preparing something
My waiting's not for nothing
'Cause forty one is coming, mm-mm
Forty one is coming

I've lived through nights that feel like lifetimes
And days that never end
But I trust You just enough to know
That You'll do it again

If You could keep a promise
After forty years of wandering
I'll keep hoping 'til I see it
I'm not going back to Egypt
'Cause You're not in the business
Of keeping things unfinished
While You're preparing something
My waiting's not for nothing
Forty one is coming
