the Waiting Lyrics

Not always understanding / Not knowing why / Why does it take so long / Before the bird learns to fly / Patience isn't one of my best traits / But I know I've come a long way / You've gotta wait through the night / Before you can see the day

CHORUS
The waiting makes me stronger / The waiting makes me stronger / The waiting makes me stronger

Wait and see / I see my face in the mirror / Another year is gone / How can it be, I'm still striving / Waiting for the dawn / Still fighting off rejection / No mercy for what I do / Only one thing keeps me going / Knowin' Him gets me through

CHORUS

I can rest in knowing / There's a plan for all my days / I need to say within God's timing / Try to understand His ways / Not always understanding / I don't always know what for / But it's hope that keeps me goin' now / I'll be waiting near the door

Psalms 27:14
