Lyrics

Verse 1


What my eyes can't see I still believe
Everything spoken to me
There's no word that can come back void
I will trust the report of the Lord


Verse 2


God is not a man that He should lie
Every need He will supply
I will wait, I will not be moved
I believe, I believe, I will trust in You


Chorus


While I'm waiting I'm getting stronger
My faith is rising, and I will run on
While I'm waiting I'm lifting up on wings as eagles
I believe, I will trust in You


Refrain (Repeat x2)


Oh ooh oh ooh I believe, I will trust in You


Verse 1 (Repeat)


Verse 3


I will run and I will not be weary
I will walk and I will not faint
I will rise up on wings as eagles
I believe, I believe, I will trust in You


Outro


I still believe, I still believe, I still believe
What my eyes can't see

Meaning & Inspiration

"While I Am Waiting" opens by distinguishing sight from belief, naming confidence in what cannot be seen as something still firmly held rather than weakened by lack of evidence. That distinction, unseen yet believed, frames the entire song around trust grounded in spoken promise rather than visible proof.

Its verses name specific assurances, God's word never returning empty, God's own character ruling out deception, every need eventually supplied, treating each as reason enough to remain unmoved while waiting continues. That accumulation of named promises keeps the song's patience from becoming passive resignation.

Rooted in contemporary gospel's declarative anthem tradition, the song functions as an extended declaration that waiting itself produces strength rather than only requiring endurance, its chorus borrowing a well-known prophetic image, rising on wings as eagles, to describe renewed strength as the direct outcome of sustained, active trust.
