Here are the lyrics to one of my favorite Hillsong United songs off the Hillsong Australia album:
"I have decided
I have resolved
To wait upon You Lord
My rock and Redeemer
Shield and reward
I'll wait upon You Lord
As surely as the sun will rise
You'll come to us
Certain as the dawn appears
You'll come
Let Your glory fall as You respond to us
Spirit rain, flood into our thirsty hearts again
You'll come
You'll come
We are not shaken
We are not moved
We wait upon You Lord
Mighty deliverer
Triumph and truth
We wait upon You Lord
As surely as the sun will rise
You'll come to us
Certain as Your Word endures
You'll come
Let Your glory fall as You respond to us
Spirit rain, flood into our thirsty hearts again
You'll come
You'll come
Chains be broken
Lives be healed
Eyes be opened
Christ is revealed"
Just some ways this song moves me...
-I love the promise God gives us here. We can expect Him to answer our prayers with as much confidence as we have for the morning to bring light. It might not be in our timing or the way we want our prayers answered; but we are to wait patiently with expectant hearts. And until then, God uses His shield to protect us. This is a promise that even when we are still in battle, we know that we will be victorious in the end. (Desert Song by Hillsong sings of being victorious because we are God's children)
-And what a beautiful prayer... "Chains be broken, lives be healed. Eyes be opened, Christ is revealed." Sometimes when I don't know what to pray, I just sing this over and over again as my prayer.
