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 angel 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__ (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__ (on Mary)
Waitin' on Mary__ (on Mary) (Mary)
