The Solace

I am waiting, Lord, on Thee, 

Show me what You want for me. 
I am resting; Thou art doing. 
I am listening; Thou art wooing. 
In the beauty of Thy will, 
Draw me close, my being still. 

I am trusting, Lord, in Thee, 
Show the path I cannot see. 
I am foll’wing; Thou art leading. 
I am hung’ring; Thou are feeding. 
While I yield, through my tears, 
Pour Your comfort, calm my fears.

I am resting, Lord, in Thee, 
Keep my eyes on Calvary. 
I am praying; Thou art giving. 
I am dying; thou art living. 
Not my will, but Thine instead, 
Poured-out wine, and broken bread.
