I can see the storm descending on the hill tonightTall trees are bending to Your will tonightOh, let the mighty bow downAt the thundering sound of Your voiceAnd I can hear the howling wind and feel the rain tonightEvery drop a prophet in Your name tonightOh, and the song that they singIt is washing me cleanBut how long, how longHow long until this curtain is lifted?How long, how long is this the song that we sing?How long until the reckoning?And I know You hear the cries of every soul tonightYou see the teardrops as they roll tonightDown the faces of the saintsWho grow weary and faint in Your fieldsAnd the wicked roam the cities and the streets tonightBut when the God of love and thunder speaks tonightOh, I believe You will comeYour justice be doneBut how long, how longHow long until this curtain is liftedHow long, how long is this the song that we sing?How long until the reckoning? Oh, the reckoningYou are holiness and grace, You are fury and restYou are anger and love, You curse and You blessYou are mighty and weak, You are silence and songYou are plain as the day but you have hidden Your faceFor how long, how long?And I am standing in the stillness of the reckoningThe storm is past and rest is beckoningMighty God, how I fear YouAnd I long to be near You, oh LordHow long(How long)How long(How long)How long until this burden is lifted? (How long until the reckoning?)How long (How long)How long is this the song that we sing? (How long)How long until the reckoning?And I know (How long)I know (How long)And I know that I don't know what I'm asking (How long until the reckoning?)How long (How long)I long to look You full in the face (How long)I'm ready for the reckoning
