Waitin' on Mary
GRETCHEN PETERS
Joseph walked to Bethlehem
Found no room there at the inn
And knowing not what was to be
He lay beside her patiently
Waitin' on Mary
The shepherds watched, the stars grew bright
The angels said, "It's gonna be alright
Just have some faith, just wait and see
A miracle will come to be"
Waitin' on Mary
And after all these centuries
The world still has its refugees
The losers in the human race
But with the most amazing grace
They're waitin' on Mary
Faraway on some dark hill
There are faithful waiting still
Who have no hope but still believe
Maybe tonight is Christmas eve
And they're waitin' on Mary
