I waited on the Lord,
and I was renewed
as His strength
I eagerly pursued.
I was able to rise,
above all my care
just like an eagle
soaring in the air.
I waited on the Lord,
and I stayed in the race
I grew not weary . . .
for He gave me the grace.
I was able to run,
without tiring
just like an eagle
on wings flying.
I waited on the Lord,
without even fainting
as I walked it felt like . . .
on wings I was floating!
~~~~~~~~
Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings
as eagles; they shall run,
and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint

If we’re to remain,
and wait patiently
we must be willing
to do so obediently.
For a heart anxious,
is one restless
and it often feels
dreary and listless.
If we’re to remain,
and wait graciously
we must be willing
to do so expectantly.
For a mind fretful,
is one hopeless
and it often feels
weak and helpless.
If we’re to remain,
hopeful and upbeat
we cannot let man
our faith deplete!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 37:7
Rest in the Lord,
and wait patiently for him:
fret not thyself because of
him who prospereth in his way,
because of the man who bringeth
wicked devices to pass.

Sometimes my eagle wings,
get fatigued and weary . . .
especially when this world
seems so grim and dreary.
But I know I will not faint,
nor give up the flight
as long as God remains
my strength and guiding light.
Sometimes my eagles wings,
get tattered and ripped
especially when my freedoms
from me are being stripped.
But I’m determined to fly,
against the resistance
for I know to endure I need
the wings of persistence.
Daily my eagles wings,
need to be renewed . . .
so I pray to the Lord
give me the fortitude!
~~~~~~~~
Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings
as eagles; they shall run, and
not be weary; and they shall walk,
and not faint.
Matthew 24:13
But he that shall endure
unto the end, the same
shall be saved.

God is not asking you,
to go figure things out
He’s asking you to wait . . .
without having any doubt.
For He already has,
an answer to your prayer
now He wants you to be
to His directions aware.
God is not saying to you,
to run off and go and fix it
He’s telling you to be still . . .
so you can hear His Spirit.
When He’s ready Your answer,
He will stamp on it the date
now He’s asking you to have
the courage to sit and wait
God is not asking you,
to rush off and go do
He’s saying wait for it . . .
till He shows you how to!

Psalm 27:14

I am waiting for You Lord,
because You told me to
and I am anticipating
what it is that You will do.
I am being strong Lord,
for I have put my trust
in You because I know
You’re always fair and just.
I am waiting for You Lord,
just like You said I should
and I know I can expect
from You something good.
I’m remaining calm Lord,
see I’m not trembling
for I have put my faith in
whatever You’re assembling.
I am waiting for You Lord,
again I say I’m waiting . . .
for I know that with You
there can be no debating!

In God and Him alone,
my soul waits ever patiently
for my hope only comes
when I rest in Him quietly.
He is my sturdy Rock,
from which I can’t be shaken
He protects and defends me
from the attacks of Satan.
A Refuge to me He is,
a place to run and hide
His love encompasses me
from each and every side.
It is in Him I trust,
in Him my faith is hedged
for He is my soul’s salvation
with His power I am dredged.
In God and Him alone,
my soul rests expectantly
nothing can move me from . . .
waiting on Him patiently!

Psalm 62:1-2
“Truly my soul waiteth upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.”
He only is my rock and my salvation;
he is my defence;
I shall not be greatly moved.

I wait for the stillness,
as I silently pray
I wait for the Lord
to come and enter my day.
I expect Him to draw near,
and bring me His strength
I expect Him to go with me
the full course and length.
I depend on my God,
to give me His lasting power
I depend on Him to help me
no matter the hour.
I trust in my Rock,
to defend and protect me
I trust He is my shelter
from every storm at sea.
I believe He is my Lord,
my salvation, my peace
I believe He is right here
standing within my reach.
I know that alone,
He is all that I need
I know He will guide me
and His Spirit will lead!

Psalm 62:5

For my expectation is from Him.”
