Fighter - The Waiting

The Waiting


Not always understanding
Not knowing why
Why does it take so long
Before the bird learns to fly
Patience isn't one of my best traits
But I know I've come a long way
You've gotta wait through the night
Before you can see the day

The waiting makes me stronger
The waiting makes me stronger
The waiting makes me stronger

Wait and see
I see my face in the mirror
Another year is gone
How can it be, I'm still striving
Waiting for the dawn
Still fighting off rejection
No mercy for what I do
Only one thing keeps me going
Knowin' Him gets me through

I can rest in knowing
There's a plan for all my days
I need to say within God's timing
Try to understand His ways
Not always understanding
I don't always know what for
But it's hope that keeps me goin' now
I'll be waiting near the door
