Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The enemy whispered, "It’s over"
He said I’d never rise again
He wanted me to stop praying
To believe God forgot my name
But I know the God I serve
The healer, the restorer
The one who gives strength to the weak
So I lift my eyes to Him again
(Chorus)
While I waited, He renewed me
While I waited, He lifted my head
Every tear became a seed of power
Every sob became worship instead
They that wait upon the Lord shall rise again
And I am rising
(Verse 2)
Some nights I lay in pain and silence
Wondering if heaven could still hear
The world around me kept moving
But I was stuck between hope and fear
Still, I whispered, "God, I trust You"
Even when I couldn’t see change
And in that stillness, He was already working
Behind my pain
(Chorus)
While I waited, He renewed me
While I waited, He lifted my head
Every tear became a seed of power
Every sob became worship instead
They that wait upon the Lord shall rise again
And I am rising
(Bridge)
Waiting is not weakness, it’s worship
It’s faith that won’t bow to fear
It’s trusting what I can’t see yet
And knowing God is still near
While I waited, He rebuilt me
While I waited, He taught me to fly again
What felt like delay was deliverance
What felt like silence was love
They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength
(Outro)
So I'll keep waiting
Not in fear, but in faith
Because the God who hears
Is also the God who gives strength
And while I waited
He was already on the way
