Longing.

No one can understand me like you.
No one listens like you.
You wrap me in your arms and never let go.
You protect me from enemies that try to sneak to me.
They whisper in my ears telling me lies.
They tempt me with the world and the little things it has to offer.
Concentration is broken.
Determination is failing.
Longing is fading.

My feet stand firm on the rock of your name.
You hold me down and say you'll bear my shame.
Nothing comes between us when I open up my heart.
I speak to you, and hope you hear.
I have put all my hearts desires on a table in the clear.
The past is just the past.
The present is in our hands.
Our future planned and mapped out.
I long to hear you in my ears.
I long to see you in my dreams.
I long to have you speak to me.
I long to have you near me.
I long to have your touch linger.
I long to have hope.
I long to have grace.
I long to have love.

I long to go to the nations.
I long to speak love to the lost.
I long to call all my own.
I long to be one with you.
I long to help those who can't help themselves.
I long to clothe many children.
I long to love like you have loved me.
I long to see revival come.
I long to see dead people raised.
I long to see millions saved.

I long to see you come.
Please come now.
The time is near.
Come down.
Cities need you.
Nations need you.
I need you.

People will fall on their knees.
Children will sing and dance.
The old will see.
The young will proclaim.
Every eye see.
Every ear hear.
Every tongue confess.

They will see.
They will hear.
They will say.
They will confess.

The world longs for you, even if they don't know it yet. Their hearts, their lives are missing something that will complete them. The time is coming when you will show yourselves to people and their longing will be made clear.
