Morning Mr. Repo Man
Give me one more week and I’ll be gone
It’s been a long hard month of Sundays
And still no rain
Nothin’ left around here but the dust and shame
I know you know (hmmm), I know you know
And I’m trying to find a way
To hold onto my faith
While I wait, for You
I’ll wait for You
Now I lie awake at night tryin’ hard to think
But these are the hardest times I’ve ever seen
I’m still holdin’ on
I know You never said it’d be easy all thick and no thin
But the man who waits is the man who wins
Holdin’ on, oh yeah, I’m holdin’ on
Gonna hide myself away
Hide myself away
And I’ll wait for You
I’ll wait for You
I need You now
Oh I need You now, oh, yeah yeah
And I’ll wait for You
I’ll wait for You
I’m gonna wait for You oh
I’ll wait for You
I’m gonna walk on
And not get weary now
I’m gonna run and not fall down
I know that someday
I’ll get my wings somehow
And You will carry me, You will carry me
I’m gonna rise up
Like an eagle now
Gonna ride that big blue sky
And should I someday
Fall back down again
You will carry me, You will carry me, even now
Carry me even now, (You’re gonna carry me)
You will carry me, You will carry me even now
Oh carry me, oh yeah
