It Is Enough - The Waiting

There’s something about the sorrow showing on your face

Something so tender and contrite

I know you’re tired of being in this place

Your every daydream turns to night

And you’ve worked and strived and struggled

Until your fingers they’ve turned blue

From digging deep into the heart

Of what you can and cannot do

There’s something about the hesitation in your step

Something so beautiful and scared

There’s something hard about the truth that you accept

And still you find a Savior there

So don’t you despise the road

Should it drive straight to the Son

He’s got His reason to receive you

And doesn’t need another one

The Blood, it is enough

For every man, woman and child

To be reconciled

The Blood, it is enough

For those of every shade of skin

To begin again

There’s something about the way you cry yourself to sleep

Something so destitute and poor

Sweet is every tear that’s running down your cheek

How each one clears the way for more

So if it drives you to the Savior

Then don’t disconnect the pain

He’s got one excuse to hold you

And never let you go again

Everybody has tarried

In a barren land

Even in a devil’s den

But if the cross that you carry

Should slip from your hands

Get on your knees

And pick it up, pick it up, pick it up again
