Steven Curtis Chapman – Wait lyrics
You wonder when the Lord will renew the strength within you;
You wonder how, how can He use you as you are.
Seems like you're wasting precious time,
But then a voice comes to remind you (to wait).

Chorus
Wait, wait, wait on the Lord;
You will understand in time.
Why you must wait,
Wait, wait, wait on the Lord;
Yes He hears you,
But for now you must wait on the Lord.

Answers come slowly to your cries of desperation,
But time is His tool, teaching the greatest lessons learned;
So let Him do His work in you,
And watch the miracles come true as you (wait).

[Chorus:]

And He wants you to know that
They that wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They will rise up with wings as eagles,
They will run, not get weary.
They will walk and not faint;
That's a promise to us when we (wait).

[Chorus:]

    This song is based on Isaiah 40:31. Actually, the bridge is an almost verbatim rendering of that passage. It reads like this: "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."

    Overall, Isaiah 40:31 is one of the most encouraging verses in the Bible and hence, it is quoted relatively often. I think this song does an excellent job at bringing out the spirit of that much-loved verse.
