Don Moen's song 'We Wait' is a worship ballad about patiently seeking God's presence. The lyrics express a deliberate slowing down, laying aside cares and worries, and yearning for the Lord. It emphasizes waiting without hurry or fear, trusting God's timing. The song builds toward a desire for God's holy fire to fill the place of worship. It reflects themes of surrender, anticipation, and longing for divine encounter, reminiscent of biblical passages about waiting on the Lord such as Isaiah 40:31.
We wait
We're not in a hurry
O we need you, Lord
We wait
All our cares and worries
We lay aside for you
O how we long to see your face
O how we long for your embrace
We wait
We're not afraid to tarry
We yearn for you, Lord
We wait
For your mighty wind to carry us
Into your presence, Lord
And as we fill this house with praise
May your holy fire fill this place
As we wait
We wait, we wait, we wait
And as we fill this house with praise
Let your holy fire fill this place
