Take a burning spear and the Savior's promise,
Ride a horse of air through the burning forest,
With our father's faith and a child's wonder,
Down the halls of grace, by his mercy go under,
It will seem so sudden.
Yes, but through God's will the season will dream, and time will stand still.
For hearts in waiting,
Ascending,
Hearts in waiting.
Beneath a crimson sea is a buried treasure,
You will find the key that unlocks forever,
Does it seem so sudden, this sad sweet goodbye?
This is what you have lived for, now for this you must die.
Hearts in waiting,
Ascending,
Hearts in waiting.
Close your eyes and rest secure,
Your soul is safe, your body sure,
He that loves you is he that keeps,
The one that guards you never slumbers, never sleeps.
Take the greatest care to hold onto your vision,
Climb the golden stair to the courts of Heaven,
It will seem so sudden but you will laugh as you run,
You will wash in the river, you will shine in the Son.
Hearts in waiting,
Ascending,
Hearts in waiting,
Ascending...
