The Blind Boys of Alabama - I Am Not Waiting Anymore lyrics

I’ve been building my house in vain With bricks of lies and stones of pain Out on the sandy floods that flood in the rain I am not waiting anymore I’m waiting to thank Lord God’s chosen child, bloody from the roam This bitterness was k**ing me all along I am not waiting anymore I spent a lifetime of noise Trying to tell my story Burrowed in the darkness Like Peter, waiting for the moment He who goes out weeping Carrying seed to soul Turns red songs of joy And a bundling life to show I have read between the lines I have been wrong every time It’s burned up on the altar but I am fine I am not waiting anymore I am not waiting anymore I am not waiting anymore
