Carried Through the Waiting

As I'm preparing in my office this morning, I'm listening to KTIS radio.  I just heard two WONDERFUL songs...

One is "While I'm Waiting." as sung by John Waller.  It's from last year's excellent movie "Fireproof."  Here are the lyrics--you can listen to a music video of the song at this link.

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait

I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

The other song I just listened to was "He Will Carry Me" by Mark Schultz.  You can listen to it once at this link -- couldn't find a video.

You’re strong
I’m weary
I’m holdin’ on
But I feel like givin’ in
But still You’re with me

Chorus
And even though I’m walkin’ through
The valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when all hope is gone
And I’ve been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will
Ever need
And He will carry me

I know I’m broken
But You alone
Can mend this heart of mine
You’re always with me
Chorus

And even though I feel so lonely
Like I’ve never been before
You never said it would be easy
But You said you’d see me through
The storm
Chorus

When times of trial and despair come, the music of Christian artists lift and carry me because those lyrics reflect God's Word and God's heart for me, and for you.
