im here, not by myself,
One who hears and knows
healed and renewed, ready to face whats to come
with her right now

but He holds me back, commands me to "be still"
saying she's not ready, and theres more for me to learn
what about tomorrow? or whats to come, surely now's the time
"trust Me", the voice that created me, louder than the rushing waves
spoken gently, seldom the answers come, He offers Himself
"wait on Me", from the voice who spoke the heavens into place
this is Who i will trust

i want to go and be with her, i dont understand whats going on
"but I do", and my soul is held together by His peace, by the nail scarred hands
"I know what's best", our future is intact, protected, and i wait
restless at times, even now, in His awesome presence,
but He still loves me and accepts, even with the many flaws sin has brought about

and even though tears threaten to drown me, with a heart that wants to break
and a mind not strong enough to hold on, He comes in, "do not be afraid"
"I am here", washing away my worries, calming my soul, leading me
to refreshing waters, to streams of living water, He holds me again

watching over us, i trust, in Him, i believe in His unfailing love
He listens and understands all we go through, so here i wait
even though i do not understand, event hough i want things to happen now
i wait, lying in His arms. and i believe, i hope, and i trust in You
for her!
