run and not get weary

A few weeks ago, I commented in this blog about a worship song that really ministered to me. I searched around the Internet for it, but I didn’t have enough to go on other than that the lyrics came from familiar verses in the book of Isaiah. Well, this morning we sang it again, and this time, I made sure to jot down the title (They That Wait) and artist (Kevin Prosch). I’m disappointed that the only album the song appears to be on is Kiss the Son which is only available in a cassette. I’m a CD and iPod kind of gal. Nothing to play a cassette tape on anymore, not even in my car. I looked for it used on Amazon.com and came up empty, which is highly unusual. Sigh. Maybe I’ll have to order the songbook and learn to play it on the piano or keyboard.

They that wait on the Lord will renew their strength.
Run and not get weary walk and not faint.

Do you not know, have you not heard, My father does not get weary
He’ll bring passion to a willing heart
Even the youths get tired and faint but strength will come for those who wait!

They that wait on the Lord will renew their strength
Run and not get weary walk and not faint.

The Lord speaks to me often through music. Certainly He has spoken to me through the words and melody of this particular song. Thank you, Kevin.
