How Long (Though We Walk)

How long till justice flows?
How long till peace is ours?
How long must sadness be our song?
How long my Lord?
The glorious kingdom come
Is here at last
But not yet seen
Oh, not yet seen
How long must we wait?
How long must we wait?
Though we live in the shadow of death
Though we may walk in the valley afraid
We do not live or walk or die on our own
For you are still there
You are still there
Who lives that can’t feel death
Mocking us from all around?
When will you set all right?
How long O Lord?
Our days cut short by sin
Our minds oppressed by grief
All is not well down here
How long must we wait?
Where is God in our pain?
