My soul waits for the Lord,
in quiet hope, I wait . . .
for, what else can I do
so for Him, I will wait.
No need to get restless,
caught up in my fears
in quiet hope, I wait . . .
until my Jesus appears.
As problems pile up,
adding to my care
in quiet hope, I wait . . .
as I go to Him in prayer.
At this very moment,
in my soul’s hungry need
in quiet hope, I wait . . .
to His will, I shall heed.
My soul waits for the Lord,
in quiet hope, I wait . . .
I know He’ll come again
so til then, I’ll not faint!
~~~~~~~~~~
Psalm 27:13-14
“I had fainted, unless I had believed to see
the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall
strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.”
King James Version
