Shane & Shane's 'Waiting Room' is a worship song about trusting God during seasons of silence and uncertainty. The lyrics express a determination to keep running, singing, praying, and listening even when feelings and circumstances are difficult. The song uses the metaphor of a waiting room to describe a place of patient trust, where believers offer their words to God and wait for His still, soft voice. It acknowledges that God is sovereign over time and that He works in our hearts as we wait. The song encourages faith and surrender, emphasizing that it's all about God, not our own efforts or understanding.

I will run when I cannot walk
I will sing when there is no song
I will pray when there is no prayer
I will listen when I cannot hear
Sitting in the waiting room of silence
Waiting for that still soft voice I know
Offering my words up to the rooftop to Your heart
Trusting that this closet's where You are
Lord I know if I change my mind
You will change my heart in time
Sovereign Lord this time's from You
So I sit in the waiting room of silence
'Cause it's all about You
I will fight when I cannot feel
I will trust when You don't seem real
I will tell when I cannot speak
I will step when I cannot see
