I've walked with the lepers and the greats
And I've seen them both fall
Day and night on their knees
Wailing at your wall
I've watched them go down in fear
But how taller they'd stand
If You were here
My feet have tread the path of victory
My hands have waged war
Unseen foes bruise my body
I lay defeated on Your floor
But I know I've got everything I need to make it through
But how much stronger would I be
If I could see You
Oh blessed be the day
When I have seen Your face
As I sit here with this sorrow I think of all the faithful ones
Who've gone before me
It's been so long since they were here
Their lives now just stories
But I wanna be like them and be like You
I don't want to be me
Cause I'm still the same old sinner that I was
I still need You
Oh blessed be the day
When all will see Your face
Oh blessed be the day
When I will see Your face
