And I will wait, I will wait for you
And I will wait, I will wait for you

from Mumford & Sons – I Will Wait Lyrics on Rap Genius

He’s not rushing to be judged, probably out of fear of finding out what that judgement will be.

Many of the band’s lyrics allude to this theme of the hypocrisy and frivolity of religion, and the way it hurts people. Stones are hard, but they are also broken and smoothed over. Religion does the same thing to people. It hardens their hearts toward faith and breaks them down because they give into the theory that God is harsh and demanding, and only willing to know them if they offer religious sacrifices.
