Jonny Diaz's song 'Waiting Room' captures the tension of waiting on God when His answer is not what we hoped for. The lyrics express a heartfelt struggle between wanting a 'yes' and accepting God's 'no,' while affirming that His plans are wiser and greater. The song encourages trust in God's bigger perspective, even when reasons are unclear. It acknowledges that praise should not depend on receiving the desired outcome but should remain constant, whether God says yes or no. This honest and reflective piece speaks to believers navigating seasons of unanswered prayers and divine timing.

Here in this waiting room yearning for You to say go
And though I�??m convinced that a yes would be best
This time You�??re telling me no
It�??s not that I don�??t have an answer
It�??s just not the one that I�??d like
But through this time Lord I must keep in mind
You�??re always wiser than I
You have a much better purpose
And You have a far greater plan
And You have a bigger perspective
Cause You hold this world in your hands
The things that I seek are from You
Like the strong healing touch of your hand
But when You say no help me trust even though
There�??s a reason I can�??t understand
When that miracle comes cause Your answer is yes
I will praise you for all of my days
But when Your wisdom declares that a no is best
I will praise You just the same
