My heart waits with longing
To be with my Beloved in the home
He has prepared for me in heaven,
To see my precious Lord face to face.

1.
Today, as I journey toward heavenly Zion,
My earthly life is filled with sorrow.
When will You come and take me to Yourself?
On that day, all my pain will finally end.

2.
I journey through this wilderness without growing weary,
Sustained by Your grace.
You never leave me, not even for a moment;
You care for me like the apple of Your eye.

3.
Good Lord, I will work for You
Until the very end.
Until my troubles are over and I come into Your presence,
I will find no true rest here on earth.

4.
My Beloved, isn't it time
For us to hear the Lord's trumpet sounding in heaven?
My longing to see You grows stronger.
Amen, Jesus—come!
