Ran to the store yesterday to pick up sundry items and came across a brand new cd from FFH called Worship in the Waiting. As I listened to it while working last night, the songs spoke so powerfully to me. The entire cd deals with the times of waiting we find ourselves in- when God chooses to be silent or does not provide the immediate answers. I hope these lyrics will encourage you the same way as they have encouraged me. Even in times of difficulty and discouragment- keep worshipping. Because God is good- He does not change even though our circumstances might!
Love to you all~

In the Waiting

I’ve seen the red sea part, I’ve seen the mountains move
But now it seems so dark, I can’t even feel you
If you chose to be silent I’ll be silent too
I will worship in the waiting, quiet before you
Until your voice like manna from the sky falls

I WILL WORSHIP IN THE WAITING
I WILL WALK WITH THIS SAND BENEATH MY FEET
THOUGH THE WINTER WIND IS BLOWING
THE GROUND IS NOT FROZEN UNDERNEATH
I WILL WORSHIP AND NOT GROW BITTER
CAUSE I KNOW YOU SEE THE END OF IT ALL
AND WITH THE SPRING WILL COME THE RAIN
AND I'LL SEE WHAT WAS GAINED
IN THE WAITING

I’ve seen the blooms of spring, new life in everything
But now it seems so grey, bright colors fade away
This winter seems much longer and colder than before
But I will worship in the waiting, expecting something more
Until the sun shines warm upon my face again

He Leadeth me He leadeth me
By his own hand He leadeth me
His faithful follower I would be
For by his hand He leadeth me
