Hoping and Waiting

'Wait upon the Lord', 'Wait on God': What does this mean? The notes of this melody repeat the B-C-D. It's like people who tap their fingers when stressed or bored or impatient. In final analysis, waiting on God is learning to spend time with Him,

Many genres, Contemporary Christian, Lyrics, instrumentals
I write my own songs ;) I have a very diverse taste in music, from Pop to Classical, including Rock, Folk, Jazz, Country, World Music (Celtic, Romanian), Old Timey Stringband/Bluegrass, and Latin. All these styles are in my Christian Contemporary catagory. I usually write the music first, and then put words to the music. Though I don't sing good enough yet, I though I would put my instrumentals out along with my music. Generally, I think my music/lyrics are getting better, being more skilled now than when I started.

Story behind the song
There is no eagle in this song, but the progression in intensity of energy in the music has the same idea - waiting on the Lord will result in increased strength and courage. There is also no real chorus. This accentuates the 'waiting' idea.
Lyrics
Hoping and Waiting Hoping and waiting, My heart's set upon You Hoping and waiting, Your presence is clear All of my life has now been given For Your salvation and love Hoping and waiting, My life depends on You Hoping and waiting, You, Lord, are never late If I call on You While reading the bible Yes, You are there, and If I call on You While dealing with problems Yes, You are there, If I call on You While holding a baby Yes, You are there, Oh, Lord I'm - Hoping and waiting, Till I have the nerve to ... Hoping and waiting, Should I wait to serve You? Hoping and waiting, You, Lord, are never late Hoping and waiting, My heart beats all for You Hoping and waiting, With rev'rence and fear All of my being is now so open To drink up Your love and grace Hoping and waiting, To soak up Your blessings Hoping and waiting, You, Lord, are ever great If I call on You While praying for wisdom Yes, You are there, and If I call on You While serving a neighbor Yes, You are there, If I call on You While asking forgiveness Yes, You are there, Oh, Lord I'm - Hoping and waiting, There's no need to hurry Hoping and waiting, Being still, I won't worry Hoping and waiting, You, Lord, are never late Hoping and waiting, My heart sings about You Hoping and waiting, Your word's in my ear All of my hopes are now riding In life's journey of trust Hoping and waiting, To wait for You only Hoping and waiting, I'm ready to serve You in faith If I call on You While sitting in prison Yes, You are there, and If I call on You While hearing a sermon Yes, You are there, If I call on You While helping the children Yes, You are there, Oh, Lord I'm - Hoping and waiting, Till time has a-ripened Hoping and waiting, Suspense will be tightened. Hoping and waiting, You, Lord, are never late David Davis copyright 2009 http://postadavisongs.50webs.com/HopingAndWaiting.html
