Lee Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: I’m weary in this vale of woe Refrain First Line: I’m waiting only for Thy call Lyrics: 1 I’m weary in this vale of woe, Of sorrow everywhere I go, But faith makes glad the darkest sky, By whispering, "He is nigh." Refrain: I’m waiting only for Thy call, My gracious Lord, my life, my all; To joys beyond the golden gates, Dear Jesus, Lord, I wait. 2 Some time the shadows thick and fast Upon my sunlit skies are cast; Then whispers, hope, forever bright, "Beyond the cloud is light."
