Busy in Our Waiting

We must not be sleeping
busy in our waiting
for the coming Messiah
in life, in victory

We should be busy in our waiting
as the farmer in the field
waiting for the growing crops
the harvest to reveal

We should be preparing our hearts
tending the Lord’s garden
sowing seeds of hope
in spreading his good news

Seeking love in the world
peace between all men
living humbly, as our Lord
loving our fellow man
