I Will Wait Lyrics

Cover art for I Will Wait lyrics by Mumford & Sons

This song is about the second coming of Jesus Christ. The term "coming home" is used when the person in the song receives salvation. "You forgave" is referring to the Lord forgiving him of his sins. "Kneel down" and "raise my hands" and "bow my head" are all praises to the Lord you will see during a revival. He is telling the Lord he is saved and he will wait for the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ. This is a super song!!!

Song Meaning

I couldn't see a religious meaning in it, though everyone is entitled to interpret songs as they wish. It would be lovely to have a song about the second coming of Christ though. No more greed, no more injustice, no more child abuse... when he comes again and rules. For now, we have to represent Christ and do our best to bring order and love on this planet, not just waiting for him to clean this earth, but do our part as his disciples.
