I waited... for the Lord on high... 
I waited and He heard my cry! 

He pulled me out of my dispair 
    and showed me how to walk. 
From fear into security, 
    from quick-sand to a ROCK! 

I waited... for the Lord on high... 
I waited and He heard my cry! 

He put a new song in my heart, 
    a new song for my King! 
I'll sing to let the people know 
    that I HAVE BEEN REDEEMED! 

I waited... for the Lord on high... 
I waited and He heard my cry!
