One of my favorite song written by Chinese Christian

This song was written by a Chinese Christian named Ni Tuo-sheng??? (Watchman Nee) , who was ever put into prison for his faith and politics and died in it in 1972. Hope you like it. Though there is some argument about his life and theology, This is a beautiful poem.

My Lord I am waiting for your coming

this version is translated by me, sorry my English is not well enough.

我主我正等候你再臨
My Lord I Am Waiting For Your Coming

My Lord I am waiting for your coming
For a very long time.
It seems my waiting will continue
Without ceasing.
I admire to see your face,
And hear your voice.
I hope to communicate with you
More closely than now.
Need I wait for several years again?
Then I will linger in my life,
Crying and missing you,
Till Lord you will come again.

Your congregation has waited for you
For too many ages,
From ancient time to now,
From centuries to centuries,
Being patient.
But you are still not coming.
I also have waited for you,
Since I was a Child
To now I am an elder.
Many of my friends when I was young
I can not see them again.
But you are still not coming.
Need I wait for several years again?
Then I will linger in my life,
Crying and missing you,
Till Lord you will come again.

I have waited very tiredly,
I beg you to remember me.
Great trials make me complaining,
And forget to devote myself.
So I beg you don't delay any longer,
And come back soon.
I have been patient till today,
Indeed can not bear easily any more.
Need I wait for several years again?
Then I will linger in my life,
Crying and missing you,
Till Lord you will come again.

All of distressed and pain of my heart
Can not stop for a short time,
And can not help anyone,
For you are not here with us.
Only when you come back,
And bring me to eternal heritage,
I will be satisfied in my heart.
Then I will forget all sufferings,
When I really see your face.
Need I wait for several years again?
Then I will linger in my life,
Crying and missing you,
Till Lord you will come again.
