I will wait for the Bridegroom

I've awakened early to say

I will wait for my Bridegroom

I will wait for Him today



I will give to Him my impatience

I will give Him all of my fear

I will make my heart very quiet

I will wait for Him here



CHORUS

In bright color

And in joyous line

In morning light and lampfire

I'll make fine my home here

And trust in my home to come

La, la, la, la...



With loving care and with pleasure

In the lamplight I will sing

I will trust in my Bridegroom

I will give Him everything



CHORUS (twice)



I will give to Him my impatience

I will give Him all of my fear

I will make my heart very quiet

I will wait for Him here



I will wait for the Bridegroom

I've awakened early to say

I will wait for my Bridegroom

I will wait for Him today
