The Reckoning (How Long)

Andrew Osenga, Andrew Peterson

[Verse 1]
I can see the storm descending on the hill tonight
Tall trees are bending to Your will tonight
Oh, let the mighty bow down
At the thundering sound of Your voice

[Verse 2]
I can hear the howling wind and feel the rain tonight
Every drop a prophet in Your name tonight
And the song that they sing
It is washing me clean, but

[Chorus 1]
How long, how long, how long until this curtain is lifted?
How long, how long is this the song that we sing?
How long until the reckoning?

[Verse 3]
And I know You hear the cries of every soul tonight
You see the teardrops as they roll tonight
Down the faces of saints
Who grow weary and faint in Your fields

[Verse 4]
And the wicked roam the cities and the streets tonight
But when the God of love and thunder speaks tonight
I believe You will come
Your justice be done, but

[Chorus 2]
How long, how long, how long until this curtain is lifted?
How long, how long is this the song that we sing?
How long until the reckoning?
Oh, the reckoning

[Bridge]
You are holiness and grace
You are fury and rest
You are anger and love
You curse and you bless
You are mighty and weak
You are silence and song
You are plain as the day
But You have hidden Your face
For how long, how long?

[Verse 5]
And I am standing in the stillness of the reckoning
The storm is past and rest is beckoning
Mighty God, how I fear You
And I long to be near You, O Lord

[Outro]
How long, how long, how long until this burden is lifted? (How long until the reckoning?)
How long, how long is this the song that we sing?
How long until the reckoning?
And I know, I know, I know that I don't know what I'm asking (How long until the reckoning?)
But I long, I long to look You full in the face
I am ready for the reckoning
