I Am Not Waiting Anymore Songtext

von The Blind Boys Of Alabama

I've been building my house in vain
With bricks of lies and stones of pain
Out on the sandy floods that flood in the rain
I've been building my house in vain
With bricks of lies and stones of pain
Out on the sandy floods that flood in the rain
I am not waiting anymore

I'm waiting to thank Lord
God's chosen child, bloody from the roam
This bitterness was killing me all along
I am not waiting anymore

I spent a lifetime of noise
Trying to tell my story
Burrowed in the darkness
Like Peter, waiting for the moment

He who goes out weeping
Carrying seed to soul
Turns red songs of joy
And a bundling life to show

I have read between the lines
I have been wrong every time
It's burned up on the altar but I am fine
I am not waiting anymore

I am not waiting anymore
I am not waiting anymore
