                          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

 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
