I Will Wait For You There - Phil Wickam

I am singing this song (iTunes) for the memorial service of a baby of a friend that died after it was delivered at 8 months. As a parent of three little ones when I ponder this experience I can scarcely fathom the pain of an experience such as this. May God grant grace to my friends to endure and to all of us in our season of suffering.

After I listened to the song I can see why they selected it.

Here are the lyrics:

I will wait for You there
Down on my knees where I met You
Give You all of my cares
Find a grace to hold onto now
I’m calling for You

I will wait for You there
far from the world and it’s violence
It left broken and bare
I need to hear You in the silence now
I’m calling for You

And with outstretched arms
I will sing out melodies
And my beating heart
Will pour out a symphony
Hallelujah’s in the morning
Hallelujah’s in the night
I will wait for you as long as I have life

I will wait for You there
Down On my knees where I met you
Cause life is a war fought with tears
But You are the strength I hold onto now
I’m calling for you
