長夜漫漫。惟主是盼。盼主不至。坐以待旦。

I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.

I wait for the Lord to help me. I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come. I’ll say it again. I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come.

my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.

I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.

I wait for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning— more than watchmen for the morning.

My soul waits in hope for the Lord More than the watchmen for the morning; Yes, more than the watchmen for the morning.

My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning— Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.

My soul waiteth for the Lord More than watchmen wait for the morning; Yea, more than watchmen for the morning.

I wait for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning— more than watchmen for the morning.

My soul[ waiteth] for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning:[ I say, more than] they that watch for the morning.

I yearn for the Lord, more than watchmen do for the morning, yes, more than watchmen do for the morning.

My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.
