Waiting To Be Wanted
by Pete Carlson

Album: Living In The Name of Love

Their faces tell the story
They can't hide behind the words
And even in their smiles
Is a trace of empty hurt
Waiting for somebody
To listen to their lives
A tenderhearted Father
To hear their longing cries

And they're waiting to be wanted
Waiting for someone
To reach inside and hold them
Like no one has ever done
But their waiting to be wanted
Will find its ending soon
When they run into the arms of Jesus
Their waiting to be wanted will be through

And hopes for their tomorrows
Can begin to come alive
A sense of new belonging
Looking in the Savior's eyes
No need to be held captive
Feeling no one cares
Because of love, He wants them
And hears their every prayer

And they're waiting to be wanted
Waiting for someone
To reach inside and hold them
Like no one has ever done
But their waiting to be wanted
Will find its ending soon
When they run into the arms of Jesus
Their waiting to be wanted will be through
Their waiting to be wanted will be through
