No it's not about God. It doesn't have to be a girl either, not necessarily. It's about this guy, the lead singer (I'm too lazy to look up his name), he's waiting for that one person to show him what life's really about. It could be meant towards a girl, a parent, a friend, or just someone who's turned his life around. Think of him as simba and the person he's looking for is that weird baboon guy. He needs someone to tell him what he's been waiting to hear, to answer all the questions he needs answered. Answered because he's begun to question life or humanity itself. That's me interpretation, it's not necessarily directed at any one person, it's a general s.o.s.

My Interpretation

totally agree. It doesn't have to be anyone in particular. the singer might just want anyone or anything to give him hope and guidance. Just because the word Lord or God is in the lyrics doesn't mean it's a worship song. It can be if that's what you want it to be though. I've been on both sides of the spectrum: from strongly and almost radically believing in God to believing that we're all on our own, no God no nothing. But I still capitalize the words because 1. it might be the polite thing to do and 2. I...

It doesnt have to be about a worship song to be about god.

Actually, is it about a man who is lost looking for guidance he is not happy more or less satisfied. He is saying 'Oh lord, Ive been waiting for you!' as in he has waiting a long while for the lord to step in and take control. Don't believe me? The guy who sang this song was grown up in church and the song is labeled as a Gospel and Rock-pop.
