How Long?
by The Porter's Gate, Latifah Alattas

Album: Lament Songs

Verse 1
How long, will You turn Your face away?
How long, do You hear us when we pray?
On and on, still we walk this pilgrim way
How long?

Verse 2
How long, till your children find their rest?
How long, till you draw them to Your breast?
We go on, holding to your promises
How long?

Chorus
Till You wipe away the tears from every eye
Till we see our home descending from the sky
Do we wait in vain?
Jesus, give us hope again

Verse 3
How long, till Your word will still the storm?
How long, till You bear your mighty arm?
How we groan, till You snatch us from the thorns
How long?

Chorus
Till You wipe away the tears from every eye
Till we see our home descending from the sky
Do we wait in vain?
Jesus, give us hope again

Outro
Amen, Jesus, Come!
Amen, Jesus, Come!
Amen, Jesus, Come!
Amen, Jesus, Come!
Amen, Jesus, Come!
