Teach Me To Wait

Just a song that was on my mind this morning...

Teach me Lord, to wait right down on my knees,
Till in Your own good time You answer my pleas;
Teach me not to rely on what others do,
But to wait in prayer for an answer from You.

They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength,
They shall mount up with wings like eagles.
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
Teach me Lord, teach me Lord, to wait.

Teach me Lord, to wait while hearts are aflame,
Let me humble my pride and call on Your name.
Keep my faith renewed, my eyes on Thee,
Let me be on this earth what you want me to be.

They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength,
They shall mount up with wings like eagles.
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
Teach me Lord, teach me Lord, to wait.



Wait for the Lord;be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:14

David sings that song around the house a lot (mostly to the children, but sometimes as a reminder to ourselves :)). Thank you for the encouragement this morning.

That is by far in my top ten favorite songs that I sing to myself (and to my God) all the time!! Thanks for reminding me of it this morning. Isn't it funny that it speaks to each one of us, even though we're all "waiting" for different reasons.

Now, I'll be singing it in my head all day...which will be a good thing! :)
