Worth The Wait

We'll be standing face to face, everybody in the place
Says "I know they'll be happy"
And as we walk back up the aisle I will turn to you and smile
Cause I know we'll be happy
And I will look to you and you will look to me
A million thoughts race through my head
But my smile is all you see
And I will stand beside you, I'll hold your hand and say
"You were worth the wait"

Though I often stopped to ask God why
I always knew that He was right
When He told me to wait for you
When I was weak and couldn't see the way
I'd look ahead and see your face
And God would always bring me through
I had so many chances to throw it all away
But I knew if I stayed strong I'd meet you someday
I'd kneel and pray and I'd ask God to keep you safe
Because I knew you were worth the wait

It seemed so very hard sometimes, but you were always on my mind
I couldn't bear to hurt you
So grab my hand and hold on tight, we'll run together through the night
Just you and I

We'll be walking side by side, I'll be yours and you'll be mine
And I know we'll be happy
I made the choice to wait for you, you made the same decision too
And I know we'll be happy
We had so many chances to throw it all away
But we both stayed strong and God brought our lives together that one day
Now I kneel and pray and I thank God that you are safe
You were worth the wait
