I will not be in a hurry
I will pour out my heart on my knees
I would rather have You in this moment than anything
Though the storms may rage around me
In thee I have rest my soul
Lord I love You more than life itself this I know
I will wait for You
I will wait
Lord I'll wait for You
I will wait
In Your presence I surrender
Laying down all my foolish pride
And as deep calls into deep
I will love You with all my life
And I'll wait for You
I will wait
Yes I'll wait for You
I will wait
Lord I'll wait for You
I will wait
Yes I'll wait for You
I will wait
Oh teach me God to know You more
Lord I hunger and I thirst for You
Oh teach me God to hear your voice
Never missing any word You speak to me
Oh teach me God to follow You
When You say to go I will go
Oh teach me God to trust in You
Never holding back, giving everything
I 'll give You everything I am
I will wait for You
I will wait
Yes I'll wait for You
I will wait
I'll wait for You
Follow You
Trust You
