A Song on My Heart

We sang this worship song to God on Sunday at our church. It's been on my heart since then as I've thought about our home being still on the market, our financial situation, as well as what our dear friends have been going through--their 3rd miscarriage.

By Brenton Brown
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord,
We will wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord

Our God You reign forever
Our hope Our strong deliverer

You are the everlasting God
the everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary
and You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles.


I believe the song is based on Isaiah 40: 28-31:

28 Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
29 He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength.
30 Even youths shall faint and be weary,
and young men shall fall exhausted;
31 but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint.
