Lyrics

He’s Waiting
Music by Yrjö Mikkonen
Lyrics by an anonymous poet in Glory Magazine

He’s waiting, he’s patiently waiting
Oh why dost thou tarry here below
Come up higher, the Master is saying
He’s calling you, will you not go

Would that I could go and teach
Though in deepest poverty
The story of Bahá’u’lláh
Of love and unity
But this, alas, I cannot do
So I must depend on you

I’m waiting, I’m patiently waiting
I’m calling you, will you not go
Everyone must go and teach
The Word in every land to be followers of the Glory
And give the news to every man
The news of the Messiah’s birth
God’s Glory here on the earth

He’s waiting, he’s patiently waiting
He’s calling you, will you not go
