I Will Wait

This song kind of snuck of up on me. I had convinced myself for some unknown reason that I was not going to like it. Why would I do that? I do not know but for some reason, I did. I think I was rejecting it because I was in a place where I was not open to the words that would speak to me and offer me hope. And then one day, while in a daze of not paying attention to anything in particular, I started to listen to the words. And they spoke to me. I have been in a place for awhile now that has seen more than its fair share of days of darkness. I have also had strong arms wrapped around me both physically and spiritually as I wait for my new sun to appear. And I still wait for it to come. I know it will come in its own time. I know this because I have faith that these days of darkness will recede.


“I Will Wait”—Mumford & Sons

And I came home

Like a stone

And I fell heavy into your arms

These days of darkness

Which we've known

Will blow away with this new sun

And I'll kneel down

Wait for now

And I'll kneel down

Know my ground
And I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you

So break my step

And relent

You forgave and I won't forget

Know what we've seen

And him with less

Now in some way

Shake the excess
But I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you

So I'll be bold

As well as strong

And use my head alongside my heart

So tame my flesh

And fix my eyes

That tethered mind free from the lies

But I'll kneel down

Wait for now

I'll kneel down

Know my ground

Raise my hands

Paint my spirit gold

And bow my head

Keep my heart slow

Cause I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you

And I will wait, I will wait for you
