" Wait Upon the Lord"

 

I will wait upon the Lord For He will hear my cry.

He has set my feet upon the Cornerstone.

He has pulled me from the mire and set me by His side.

On solid ground is a fertile  garden where we've grown.

 

He has put a new song on my tongue

A new song of praise  is broadcast like seeds

Many will hear the things you've done for me.

And many more will see the power of your deeds.

 

Wash me in Your water. Fill me with Your Spirit.

Raise me in Your love as you require

Wash me in Your water. Fill me with Your Spirit.

Breathe into my soul Your fire

 

 

 

Like the rain falling out of the heavens

God will not remove mercy from me.

Like the light that draws life ever upward

His goodness and His truth set me free.

 

God has always been my help and my strength,

And I know when His harvest time comes

His reaping  will be just what He has sown

I can trust in Him to gather me home

 

Wash me in Your water. Fill me with Your Spirit.

Raise me in Your love as you require

Wash me in Your water. Fill me with Your Spirit.

Breathe into my soul Your fire
