Waiting Here for You

If faith can move the mountains

Let the mountains move

We come with expectation

Waiting here for You, waiting here for You

You're the Lord of all creation

And still you know my heart

The Author of salvation

You've loved us from the start

Waiting here for You

With our hands lifted high in praise

And it's You we adore

Singing Alleluia

You are everything you've promised

Your faithfulness is true

And we're desperate for your presence

All we need is You

Waiting here for You, Lord

With our hands lifted high in praise

And it's you, Lord, we adore

Singing Alleluia

We will wait for You, Lord, we'll stand with You

We will sing alleluia

Singing Alleluia, alleluia

Singing Alleluia, alleluia

Waiting here for You

With our hands lifted high in praise

And it's You we adore, we adore

Singing Alleluia

Waiting here for You

With our hands lifted high in praise

And it's You we adore

Singing Alleluia, singing Alleluia

Waiting here for You

With our hands lifted high in praise

And it's You we adore, with our lives

Singing Alleluia, singing Alleluia

Childlike

"Becoming a child again is exactly what God wants. This is the point of abandoning. He wants us to look at the world through new eyes, eyes that see beauty and joy and excitement in all things, even the most ordinary of circumstances. He wants us to give up our control and to trust Him. Abandoning reminds us to be childlike in the middle of life at a time when we've long forgotten what it's like to be a child. This is why we leave; it's why we go on a journey in the first place."

Soon

One day soon I will get to walk the red, rocky paths again. Holding a sweaty little hand in mine. Marveling at my barefooted companions. Admiring the tropical foliage and sunshine. Worshipping the God who made it all. I can’t wait.
