Waiting for the boys to come home (BG)

These are days of trouble and sorrow in this wicked world below We are trusting ever we’re trusting God to lead against the foe It will be a happy tomorrow when the boys again we’ll see And to port the ship will come sailing as we shout for victory We are waiting (waiting) waiting (waiting) waiting with a smiling song We are waiting (waiting) waiting (waiting) waiting and it won’t be long (Ship’ll come) sailing (sailing) sailing (sailing) sailing thru the dashing foam We are waiting (waiting) waiting (waiting) waiting for the boys to come home We must keep the beacon light shining from this lighthouse on the shore They are coming yes they are coming we will see their smile once more God will make a silvery lining from the clouds that drift above And to port the ship will come sailing bringing back the boys we love
