Lyrics and translation

Original

Well, it's been a while and I'm still waiting.
And if I'm being honest, I'm getting tired of praying when nothing's shifting.
Mm, where are You? Are You listening?
I've read about the days and nights they wandered, aimless in the wilderness, asking how much longer until they'd see it.
Mm, will I ever see it?
If You could keep a promise after forty years of wandering, when the answers felt like secrets, but You always have Your reasons. 'Cause
You're not in the business of keeping things unfinished.
While You're preparing something, my waiting's not for nothing, 'cause forty-one is coming.
Forty-one is coming.
So if it's not Your timing, then don't change it.
Just promise You'll be with me every minute that I face it.
I might be tired, mm, but I know Your ways are higher.
If You could keep a promise after forty years of wandering, when the answers felt like secrets, but You always have Your reasons. 'Cause
You're not in the business of keeping things unfinished.
While You're preparing something, my waiting's not for nothing, 'cause forty-one is coming.
Mm, forty-one is coming.
I've lived through nights that feel like lifetimes and days that never end, but I trust You just enough to know that You'll do it again.
If You could keep a promise after forty years of wandering, I'll keep hoping till I see it. I'm not going back to Egypt, 'cause
You're not in the business of keeping things unfinished. While
You're preparing something, my waiting's not for nothing.
Forty-one is coming.
