I Search For You On The Horizon

Just Have To Wait

This is the fourth song off Steven Curtis Chapman's new album, Beauty Will Rise, and I think it's one of my favorites. It's one of the most upbeat songs, where Steven enjoys the memories he has of his daughter, while yet again, longing for her in Heaven.

Just Have To Wait
by Steven Curtis Chapman

I can't wait to see your smile again
The one where your eyes disappear
Along with all my troubles
And I can't wait to hear you sing a song
Maybe "Jesus Loves Me" or a song you learned up there
But I, oh I'll
Just have to wait
'Cause I know that day is coming
So I, oh I'll
Just have to wait

I can't wait to hear your momma laugh
The way that only you can make her laugh
When you get silly
And I can't wait to see you in her arms
I know the wound's so deep inside your heart
Is healed for good
But I, oh I'll
Just have to wait
'Cause I know that day is coming
So I, oh I'll
Just have to wait
Oh, oh, oh

And I can't wait to dance with you again
Now that this time, the dance
Will never have to end
Oh I, oh, I'll
Just have to wait
'Cause I know that day is coming
So I, oh I'll
I'll just have to wait

And I can't wait to see your sisters play
The way they do when all of you
Are playing altogether
And I can't wait to watch your brother's face
When he can finally see with his own eyes
Everything's okay
But I just have to wait
'Cause I know that day is coming
I just have to wait
