Intro: D Bm D G
verse 1
D
I've been waiting for the sun
G D
To come blazing up out of the night like a bullet from a gun
G Bm
Till every shadow is scattered, every dragon's on the run
D G A
Oh, I believe, I believe that the light is gonna come
G D
And this is the dark, this is the dark before the dawn
verse 2
D
I've been waiting for some peace
G D
To come raining down out of the heavens on these war-torn fields
G Bm
All creation is aching for the sons of God to be revealed
G A
Oh, I believe, I believe that the victory is sealed
G A D
The serpent struck but it was crushed beneath His heel
A G
Oh, I know the wind can bring the lightning
A G
Oh, I know the lightning brings the rain
A Bm
Oh, I know the storm can be so frightening
G A
But that same wind is gonna blow that storm away
D G D
Blow that storm away
G Bm
Lord, I'm waiting for a change
G D
I'm waiting for the change
verse 3
D
So I'm waiting for the King
G D
To come galloping out of the clouds while the angel armies sing
G Bm
He's gonna gather His people in the shadow of His wings
G A Bm
And I'm gonna raise my voice with the song of the redeemed
G D A
'Cause all this darkness is a small and passing thing
Bm D
This is the storm, this is the storm
D
The storm before the calm
G A
This is the pain, the pain before the balm
Bm D
This is the cold, the cold
D
It's the cold before the warm
G A
These are the tears, the tears before the song
G
This is the dark
A G
Sometimes all I see is this darkness
A G
Well, can't you feel the darkness
A D G
This is the dark before the dawn
D G Bm
I'm just waiting for a change, change
G D G
Lord, I'm waiting for the change
End
D
I had a dream that I was waking at the burning edge of dawn
D G
And I could see the fields of glory, I could hear the sower's song
D
I had a dream that I was waking, at the burning edge of dawn
G D G
And all that rain had washed me clean all the sorrow was gone
D
I had a dream that I was waking, at the burning edge of dawn
G
And I could finally believe, the king had loved me all along
D
I had a dream that I was waking, at the burning edge of dawn
G D
I saw the sower in the silver mist, and He was calling me home
