Watch and Pray
by Pat Couchman

Lord I looked up to the sky today
And wondered Lord about that day
The day when we will see You breakthrough
Coming for Your bride, to take us to You.

I longed for the day we would see Your face
To meet the One who has filled us with grace
The One who carries us through each day
The One who died for us to make a way

Excitement rises to think of that glorious day
When knees shall bow and tongues shall say
Jesus is the Mighty King of Kings
Our Redeemer, the One of whom we sing

We can only imagine the beauty of You
Through prayer and praise and all You do
In our hearts, in our lives, in our very being
We wait for our Savior, Our Redeemer, Our King.

Lord prepare Your bride to be ready for that time
When you will come and at your feast we will dine
To gather all those who are yours around Your throne
To worship and praise the One for whom our soul longs.

Come now, Lord Jesus that our eyes may behold
The One who is more precious than silver and gold
Let us watch and pray as we wait for You to breakthrough
Riding on Your horse Lord to bring us home to You.
