The Wings Of Faith – Waited lyrics

Waited
by Wings of Faith Mass Choir
Album: Waiting On God
Lead Spoken Word:
In the bible there was a man that had been sick for 38 years
years. He waited down at Bethesda in hope that his body might soon be healed. For legend said that the angel would come and trouble the waters and that the first one to step in, that immediately right then and there their healing will begin.
But the bible said...
(He waited)
The man waited (He waited)
I tell ya church (He waited)
He just waited (He waited)
Those behind him (He waited)
Stepped in front of him (He waited)
Those on beside of him (He waited)
Moved all about Him (He waited)
He didn't know when (He didn't know when)
He didn't know how (He didn't know how)
But he knew God's delay (He knew that God's delay)
Was not a denial (Was not a denial)
And so he waited (He waited)
He waited (He waited)
Church he just waited (He waited)
But who is he waiting on? (He waited on God)

Lead Spoken Word:
You remember Job was sick for so very long, until the flesh
begin to pull away from Job's bones. His wife approached him
one day with demons all in her eyes, she said "baby I know
you love the Lord, but why not curse God and die?"
But the bible said...

(He waited)
Job waited (He waited)
Job said I've come too far (He waited)
To turn around right now (He waited)
I've got my hand (He waited)
On the gospel plow (He waited)
And I wouldn't take nothing (He waited)
For my journey now (He waited)
He didn't know when (He didn't know when)
He didn't know how (He didn't know how)
But Job knew God's delay (He knew that God's delay)
Was not a denial (Was not a denial)
And so he waited (He waited)
He waited (He waited)
He waited (He waited)
He just waited (he waited)
Who was he waiting on?
(He waited on God)

Lead Spoken Word:
Isn't it hard to believe that Job was sick that long, until the
very flesh begin to pull away from his bones. His wife came running to him demons all in her eye, talkin' 'bout "I know you love the Lord but why not curse God and die"
But Job said...
(He waited)
Though He slay me (He waited)
Yet will I trust Him (He waited)
I'm gonna wait till my (He waited)
Change come (He waited)
If God brought me to it (He waited)
He's able to bring me through it (He waited)
I know He'll do just what He said (He waited)
He didn't know when (He didn't know when)
He didn't know how (He didn't know how)
But He knew God's delay (He knew that God's delay)
(Was not a denial)
He didn't know when (He didn't know when)
He didn't know how (He didn't know how)
But He knew God's delay (He knew that God's delay)
Was not a denial (Was not a denial)
And so he waited (He waited)
He waited (He waited)
He waited (He waited)
That's what the bible said (He waited)
The bible said He waited (He waited)

(*the rest of this can be considered ad-lib)
Let's get personal, I'm waiting (I'm waiting)
Church I'm waiting (I'm waiting)
Oh sit there all cute if you wanna (I'm waiting)
I stopped by here to tell ya I'm waiting (I'm waiting)
Somebody's waiting on a breakthrough (I'm waiting)
Somebody's waiting on a deliverence (I'm waiting)
Somebody's waiting on a closer walk with thee (I'm waiting)
Somebody want a new job (I'm waiting)
Somebody want a new anointing (I'm waiting)

Church I'm waiting (I'm waiting)

Ending:
I may not know when (I may not know when)
I may not know how (I may not know how)
But I know that God's delay (I know that God's delay)
Is not a denial (Is not a denial)
I may not know when (I may not know when)

But I know that God's delay (I know that God's delay)
Is not a denial (Is not a denial)

Lead Spoken Word:
And so in case you're going through, remember the bible said that they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up on wings as eagle, run and not be weary, walk and not faint, on behalf of Wings I say.. WAIT ON THE LORD!
