I was driving in the car one day, and pondering the word I had just heard from the Lord about waiting on Him. I had been trying to write songs, and they hadn’t been flowing very well. So I began to ask the Lord, “Lord, what do You want to hear from Your Bride when she is in the secret place with You? What do You want to be sung over her?” The words of this song started flowing and I went home and recorded it that same day.
lyrics
While I am waiting
I will rest
Lay my heart
Upon Your chest
Here comes peace
Here comes faith
To meet me while I wait
While I am waiting
I will sing
Stir up the music
That burns inside of me
Sing out loud
What You have sung to me
While I’m waiting
Cease the storm
Still the fear
Help will come
My God will hear
But all though the night
He waits with a pen
To capture the songs
I sing to Him
While I am waiting
While I am waiting
Like a bird upon her nest
Waits as the new life
Grows while she rests
Hope of flight
In soon coming days
Will keep me while I wait
