  • 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.

    Kathleen R. Lewis
