They say, and you've heard that life's gonna pass you by
And things won't change- you've heard that lie
But there's a difference in wish and wait

You wish for a thing that you hope might just happen
You wait for a thing that will come, doesn't matter
You know that the promise He made isn't that far away from you
So wait for it, wait for it

Now is your day
Live every moment, no time to waste
Look to the sky
And know that Heaven will be by your side
Real peace of mind
Is found when you're leaving nothing behind
So do all you can do
And then wait for, wait for, wait for it
You will find, all the time was worth the wait

In a moment's breath, a sudden beat in your chest
You will feel it
At morning's light, in the middle of the night
You will feel

In a word, in a prayer, in a dream you can see it
So wake up and make it the life that you're living
You know that the promise He made isn't that far away from you
So wait for it, wait for it, wait for it

Now is your day
Live every moment, no time to waste
Look to the sky
And know that Heaven will be by your side
Real peace of mind
Is found when you're leaving nothing behind
So do all you can do
And then wait for, wait for, wait for it
You will find, all the time was worth the wait

But you feel like it's gonna get away
Take your fear and turn it into faith
Then you'll see, all along, they were wrong

Now is your day
Live every moment, no time to waste
Look to the sky
And know that Heaven will be by your side
Real peace of mind
Is found when you're leaving nothing behind
So do all you can do
And then wait for, wait for, wait for it
You will find, all the time was worth the wait
