Ahhh. I love this song. It always reminds me of a period in my life that was spent with super cool people in the small town of Bendigo, Australia. Big deadly spiders, big brown snakes and learning to drive stick on the wrong side of the road. It was quite a time. It was also a time where I was pressed so far out of my comfort zone - I couldn't believe it. Looking back I can see that God was preparing me for what would come next - Africa. And fatherhood. Noah, (pic above), has been an answer to prayers that have been hidden in the deepest recesses of my heart for years and years. I am eternally grateful for the chance to be a father to this little lad.
WAITING FOR YOU
Mercy falls
From your lips
Bittersweet like a good-bye kiss
The setting sun on the western shore
Depths that lead me to your door
Leave me waiting for you
You are
Hope everlasting
Faithful eternal
Father forever
Humble divine
You love
Justice and mercy
Your burden is light
You place your hand on my shoulder Lord
It’s you I can’t deny
Familiar strains of a melody
Enticing me like a promise ring
Leave me waiting for you
The moonlit trail of a mystery
Fingerprints of a coming King
Leave me waiting here for you
Its You
