[Verse 1]
The Christ of whom the prophets told
The promised one of old
Wait no more
The Word made flesh before our eyes
Salvation in his cries
Wait no more
Wait no more

[Chorus]
The wait is over
Our hope has dawned
The light of the world has shone upon us
Hallelujah
Emmanuel
God of heaven has come to save us
The wait is over
The wait is over

[Verse 2]
All the fear that keeps me from
Letting go and coming home
I will wait no more
Everything I’m looking for
I find in you and so much more
I will wait no more
I will wait no more
[Chorus]
The wait is over
Our hope has dawned
The light of the world has shone upon us
Hallelujah
Emmanuel
God of heaven has come to save us
The wait is over
The wait is over

[Bridge]
He is kindness
He is hope
He is love like I have never known
He is power
He is peace
He is standing right in front of me
He has come and he is here
So, let all the longing hear
The wait is over
The wait is over

[Tag]
The wait is over
Our hope has dawned
The light of the world has shone upon us
[Chorus]
The wait is over
Our hope has dawned
The light of the world has shone upon us
Hallelujah
Emmanuel
God of heaven has come to save us
The wait is over
The wait is over

[Bridge]
He is kindness
He is hope
He is love like I have never known
He is power
He is peace
He is standing right in front of me
He has come and he is here
So, let all the longing hear
The wait is over
The wait is over
