(Verse 1)
How long, O Lord, will You hide Your face?
I’ve wrestled through the silence, waited in this place
Tears on my pillow, questions in my chest
But still I choose to trust—still I will confess
(Chorus)
No matter how long I wait
No, no matter how long
I know You’re near
I know You’re dwelling here
In my heart and in my soul
In my hurt and in my doubt
No matter how long I wait
I know You’re dwelling here
(Refrain)
You are near
Yes, You are here
My God, my God
You are near
Yes, You are here
My God, my God
(Verse 2)
You prepare a table in the valley low
Even when the shadows stretch and grow
Your goodness follows, mercy holds me tight
And through the darkest night, You’re still my light
(Chorus)
No matter how long I wait
No, no matter how long
I know You’re near
I know You’re dwelling here
In my heart and in my soul
In my hurt and in my doubt
No matter how long I wait
I know You’re dwelling here
(Refrain)
You are near
Yes, You are here
My God, my God
You are near
Yes, You are here
My God, my God
You are near
Yes, You are here
My God, my God
(Bridge)
Though the ache still remains
I will cling to You
Through the waiting and the pain
You’re dwelling here
You’re dwelling still
(Final Chorus-Softer)
No matter how long I wait
No, no matter how long
I know You’re near
I know You’re dwelling here
In my heart and in my soul
In my hurt and in my doubt
No matter how long I wait
I know You’re dwelling here
(Outro)
You are near
You are here
You dwell with me
You dwell right here
My God, my God
You’re still my God
