Todd Agnew - Martyr's Song lyrics

rate me

I've been waiting to dance with you

In fields full of colors you've never seen

I've been waiting to show you beauty

You never dreamed that's always been in you

I've been waiting to see you tremble as you're embraced

By a world saturated with my love

I've been waiting for the day when at last I get to say

My child you are finally home

Sing O son of Zion

Shout O child of mine

Rejoice with all your heart and soul and mind

For you are finally home

I've been waiting to watch you realize

What all your longing was for

I've been waiting to show you the thread of grace

That ran through all your pain

I've been waiting to let you drink the water of which

Your greatest joy on earth was just a taste

I've been waiting for the day when at last I get to say

My child you are finally home

Sing O son of Zion

Shout O child of mine

Rejoice with all your heart and soul and mind

Sing O daughter of Zion

Cry out O child of mine

Dance with all the strength that you can find

For you are finally home

Every tear you cried dried in the palm of my hand

Every lonely hour was by my side

every loved one lost, every river crossed

Every moment, every hour was pointing to this day

*I've been longing for this day*
