The Prodigal (i'll Be Waiting) Lyrics - Singles - Grant Amy

"But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was 

filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around 

him and kissed him." - Luke 15:20 

Words & Music by Amy Grant, Gary Chapman, and Robbie Buchanan 

I face the day again 

Against the window pane. 

I remain your closest friend, 

And wish you back again. 

You wonder how I feel; 

You think you've pushed too far. 

If only you could see this pen 

Scribbling down my heart. 

I'll be waiting. 

I may be young or old and gray, 

Counting the days, 

But I'll be waiting, 

And when I finally see you come, 

I'll run when I see you-- 

I'll meet you. 

But still the days drag on. 

Why did you decide to go? 

Did you only need to see 

What only time can show? 

I'll be waiting. 

I may be young or old and gray, 

Counting the days, 

But I'll be waiting, 

And when I finally see you come, 

I'll run when I see you. 

And even if 

You never do return, 

Still I will have learned 

How to love you better. 

I'll be waiting. 

I may be young or old and gray, 

Counting the days, 

But I'll be waiting, 

And when I finally see you come, 

I'll run to meet you. 

I'll be waiting. 

I may be young or old and gray, 

Counting the days, 

I'll be waiting, 

And when I finally see you come, 

I'll run to meet you.
