Sometimes We Wait

Last night I was listening to some recordings I recorded on my phone of my church choir two years ago. The choir was singing my favorite song called, “Sometimes We Wait.” As I listened to this song I wept because sometimes we have to on Gods timing and not our timing. Right now in my life I’m asking God to show me His plan for my life. He’s asking me to trust and rest in His arms.
Are you waiting on God to answer your prayers? Or are you like me, God has asked you to trust and rest in Him? I hope this song is a blessing to you.

Verse 1
Did Moses know when the branches spoke he would be the chosen one?
Or did his people know that a cloud of smoke would someday lead them home?
Sometimes God will speak through a bush of flames or pillars in the sky,
But at times His silence fills our days leaving us to wonder “Why?”.

Chorus
Sometimes we wait, simply to find
Sometimes His answers come with time,
Not right away clearly to see,
Sometimes we never get those parted seas
That lead us from the shore.
But there is a place
Where we rest in His grace
When sometimes we wait on the Lord.

Verse 2
If I had my way, there would come a day with a never-ending dawn.
No more mournful sighs in the dark of night as I wonder where He’s gone.
I would never see how His mercy reigns beneath a cloudless sky.
There would be no need for healing grace to comfort when we cry.

Chorus
Sometimes we wait, simply to find
Sometimes His answers come with time,
Not right away clearly to see,
Sometimes we never get those parted seas
That lead us from the shore.
But there is a place
Where we rest in His grace
When sometimes we wait on the Lord.
