Encouragement
Waiting on You Lord, it's so hard to do
Why can't I run until my trials are few
I've questioned your will,
to You I've made my plea,
Lord I'm so tired, I can't even get on my knees
My tears soak my pillow as I lay at night
My strength has failed me
I've lost power, my very might
How can I fight without You by my side
I've fallen to the ground, How can I rise?
You bid me to get up, "Arise I say! Your strength lies in Me. There's no other way!"
But how can I get up Lord
I've been disappointed and hurt,There have been many hard lessons that I've had to learn
My heart has been torn
I've grown anxious and weak
My spirit lies in waste as it begins to leak
"Wait on Me and I'll renew your strength.
You'll rise with wings as eagles. This battle,
child you can take.
Why settle for what's least when you can have what's best? You'll only achieve it when you wait
on Me and pass this test.
I'm doin a work child, a work you cannot see.
But you'll see the finish product if only you believe.
So trust. Wait. Be still my child and do not faint. Because it's your reward, your blessing, I desire for you to claim.
So when the tests are hard it's not on Me you should place the blame.
I'm your Salvation, Your help in those troubled,trying days."
I will wait on You, although its hard to do
As this trial concludes I'll trust, I'll wait, I will not faint because You alone, Oh Lord, have become my Strength
