John the Baptist

Waiting for an answer, desperate for relief

How long will you hide your face from me?

'Cause it feels like it's been ages

Since I felt you in my life

I'm looking for your presence

But you've been so hard to find

I didn't know what I was asking for when I said your kingdom come

I thought the gift of heaven meant my suffering would be done

I feel like John the Baptist asking if you were the one

'Cause it doesn't feel like it right now

Oh God, I really need you right now

Waiting for a miracle that I may never see

Tryin' to come to grips with that and still believe

But I know that you were wiser

Than I could ever know

So I'm still tryin' to trust you and surrender my control

I didn't know what it would cost me when I prayed your kingdom come

I thought the gift of heaven meant my battle would be won

I feel like John the Baptist asking if you were the one

'Cause it doesn't feel like it right now

But God, I really need you right now

I believe you can make a blind man see

I believe you can make the leper clean

And I've even seen the way that you've worked in me

But I can't really feel it right now

I'm hoping you can hear me somehow

'Cause God, I really need you right now
