My Song

I don't know if I've shared my song with you yet. I wrote this song when I was at the Next> retreat. I didn't know what I was writing it for but I was being nudged to write it at that moment. I started writing and as God started telling the words to write down, I could feel the song starting in my head. My friend Rebecca is helping me to write the actual music part of the song and so far, I've ad goosebumps everytime I've heard it. God has given me words to write down and I can't hold them in any longer. They long to flow out of me because of the amazing power of God that washed over me so many times. Within the past couple of weeks, my feelings have been hurt by something that had happened, but I had to do something in order for this to be resolved. I confronted the problem and God completely healed the situation. I am so thankful for the the way He handled it! Here are the words to my song. I hope you are encouraged! Thanks for reading!

I Wait For You

Chorus
I wait for you
To lift me up in my need
I wait for you
To hold me close to your heart
I wait for you
For your healing power
I wait for you

Verse 1
As I listen to the clock
Ticking louder than before
I wonder where all the time has gone
The time I would sit and wait
Wait to hear your voice

Chorus

Verse 2
When I look back in life
And see where you hand has been
I can hardly believe the times
All the times you showed your glory
I can’t wait to see Your glory again

Chorus

Bridge
From the ends of the earth
I call to you
My heart grows faint
Lead me to the rock
That is higher than I

Chorus
End
