Wait for the Lord

Song Details & Lyrics

Testimonial

“This is a wonderful song. The harp intro is very beautiful and impactful. The chorus is very catchy and easy to remember and I love it because it was the key verse for which I was inspired to write the lyrics; and even though the song is almost five minutes long, it doesn’t sound dragging, at least to my ears. The song makes you feel that one hope that someone like me should look forward to. I tried listening to the song over and over again before I gave my comment and I think you and your team did a good job on bringing the spirit and feel that I wanted, so good job on that and thank you very much.”

Story Behind the Song

Wait for the Lord is a gospel song uplifting the power of God. The lyricist encourages believers in the time of trial, with the call of a prophet, “When the wicked one comes to harm you/tear your flesh apart/Hold fast to what was promised.” God cannot lie, so the faithful must hold fast and wait for the Lord. Even when everyone else has forsaken the steadfast, “The Lord will take you in, and will teach the touch of God’s loving hand. So listen, be filled with courage, and continue to Wait for the Lord.
