Josie

I’ve always tried to be the steady hand

A loyal friend who tries to understand

Trustworthy, kind, I give the best of me

But lately, grief has brought me to my knees

I said goodbye to one I loved so deep

And now the shadows gather while I sleep

I pour my heart out to the empty air

But I know Heaven hears my quiet prayer

So I will wait upon the Lord today

He's gonna wash these heavy tears away

He will renew my strength, restore my soul

He takes the broken parts and makes them whole

Josie, hold on to His unchanging word

There is healing when you wait upon the Lord

The house is quiet and the missing aches

It feels just like this fragile heart might break

But even in the valley of the loss

I find my comfort looking at the cross

He sees the faithful way I've tried to live

And pours back all the love I tried to give

He holds my sorrow in His mighty hands

And walks beside me through the barren lands

So I will wait upon the Lord today

He's gonna wash these heavy tears away

He will renew my strength, restore my soul

He takes the broken parts and makes them whole

Josie, hold on to His unchanging word

There is healing when you wait upon the Lord

I'm gonna run and I won't grow weary!

I'm gonna walk and I will not faint!

The Spirit of God is right here near me

Lifting the sorrow from this weary saint

I'm gonna mount up with wings like eagles fly

Oh, Josie, lift your head and testify!

That I will wait upon the Lord today

He's gonna wash these heavy tears away

He will renew my strength, restore my soul

He takes the broken parts and makes them whole

Josie, hold on to His unchanging word

There is power, oh, there's power

There is healing when you wait upon the Lord!
