....Wait....

In The Waiting
by Greg Long

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

the only way i can express myself these days are just by songs...

God, these words...come from a heart...only You know who I am. My going in's and my going out's. I will not be moved.

Others may scoff at me. Treat me unfairly. Withold their blessings. View me wrongly...judge me without understanding...

All I really want, is just to see Your hand move...

The silence doesn't mean that I'm alone...as long as You have confidence in me, as long as I can hear Your voice...as long as I know I'm Your's...

it's 5.03am
