In The Waiting

 

    Pain
    The gift nobody longs for
    still it comes
    And somehow leaves us stronger
    When it's gone away

    Pray
    I try and pray for Your will to be done
    But I confess it's never fast enough for me
    It seems
    the hardest part is waiting on You
    When what I really want
    Is just to see Your hand move

    I want a peace beyond my understanding
    I want to feel it fall like rain
    In the middle of my hurting
    I want to feel Your arms as they surround me
    And let me know that it's okay
    To be here in this place
    Resting in the peace that only comes
    In the waiting

    Time
    Time to let it go and just believe
    Trusting in what no one else but You can see

    Free
    Freedom from the fears that close me in
    When I can't get beyond where I have been
    but then again
    The silence doesn't mean that I'm alone
    As long as I can hear
    That I am still Your own

    I want a peace beyond my understanding
    I want to feel it fall like rain
    In the middle of my hurting
    I want to feel Your arms as they surround me
    And let me know that it's okay
    To be here in this place
    Resting in the peace that only comes
    In the waiting
