How long, how long
How long, how long
Must I wait, must I wait?
Must I wait, must I wait?

Before I set my affection
On things above
And not on things of earth
No, not the things of earth
I set my affection
On things above
And not on things of earth
No, not the things of earth

If I′m dead, if I'm dead
If I′m dead, if I'm dead
Then my life is hid in Christ
It's hid in Christ, who is my life

And so I′ll set my affection
On things above
And not on things of earth
Help me obey your word
I′ll set my affection
On things above
And not on things of earth
Help me obey your word

Take my life, for it is yours
With grace in my heart, I'll adore you, Lord
Take my life, for it is yours
With grace in my heart, I′ll adore you, Lord
Take my life, for it is yours
With grace in my heart, I'll adore you, Lord
