I’m So Glad That You Waited

How long have You been waiting for me
Hoping that I would finally see?
And how long have I just pushed You aside?
How many tears have You cried?
Put me on the road that leads to heaven
And show me all I've gained
And shower down Your blessings
Like the pouring rain

Jesus, now I understand
Just why You love me so
You took this small and dying seed
And taught me how to grow
And I'm so glad that You waited, Lord
For me to come, me to come home

How long, how much longer will you delay?
Time passes quickly and then it fades away
He's there waiting outside your door
And there's always room for one more
Can't you see that you can't wait forever
Decide now what to do
And start enjoying Jesus
Before your life is through

Oh, my friend, you never know
Until you open wide
And then accept His saving grace
His Spirit deep inside
And you'll be glad that He waited, too
For you to come, you to come home
He's waiting now for you to come home
