Words & Music by Bill Batstone

Chorus:

I waited

For the Lord on high

I waited

And He heard my cry

He pulled me out of my despair

He taught me how to walk

>From fear into security

>From quicksand to the Rock

CHORUS

I sing to let the people know

That I have been restored

And they will kneel and understand

To return and trust in the Lord

CHORUS

And there's a new song

In my heart to sing

There's a new song

Praises for my King

I waited
