The Faithful - We Do Not Labour in Vain Lyrics

This is the groaning
As You count every tear we have sown 
And we trust what those tears will become
This is the stretching
Making room for our hope to arrive 
Knowing You come to make us alive
To make us alive 

We wait for light, we wait for rain 
Behold the life born out of pain 
Eyes to the dawn, we’re not afraid 
We do not labor in vain 

We will keep breathing
When the burden is too much to bear 
We can carry it if You are there
And You will deliver
All Your children to freedom and joy
In our sorrow, we’re lifting our voice
Oh, we’re lifting our voice 

We wait for light, we wait for rain 
Behold the life born out of pain 
Eyes to the dawn, we’re not afraid 
We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain
We do not labor in vain
We do not labor in vain

This moment of affliction 
Is a quickly passing story
And every heartbreak’s making 
Us ready for Your glory 

We wait for light, we wait for rain 
Behold the life born out of pain 
Eyes to the dawn, we’re not afraid 
We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain 

We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain 
We do not labor in vain
