I Waited for the Lord
Written by Bill Batstone
G Am C D
I awaited
G Am C D
For the Lord on High
G Am C D
I awaited,
G Am C D
And He heard my cry.
(repeat)
Em7 D/F# G
He pulled me out of my despair
Em7 D/F# C
And showed me where to walk:
Em7 D/F# G
From fear into security
Em7 D/F# C
From quicksand into rock.
(chorus)
I sing to let the people know
That I have been restored.
So they will kneel and understand
To return and trust in the Lord.
