I've run away from home
I've been living for myself
I've reached the point of no return
Now I'm asking you for help
I know You're all I need
I know You're all I want
But right now it feels like I'm alone
And I question where You are
Where did You go? How long must I wait for You
All the times I've failed You, all mistakes I've made
Are telling me that You have given up on me
And I'm starting to believe them
'Cause I keep falling down
There's nothing left for me to say but this
Strength will rise as I wait
Strength will rise as I wait on You, Lord
My hope is in the One who never delays
Strength will rise as I wait
I have made this mess
I have been a fool
But I pray that You would take this ash
And make it beautiful
My brokenness I know that You can mend
Your faithfulness is steadfast 'til the end
All the times I've failed You, all mistakes I've made
Are deserving of Your anger the wrath that I should take
But you replaced me on that cross
You laid alone in death
And You rose again You are my victory
Strength will rise as I wait
Strength will rise as I wait on You, Lord
My hope is in the One who never delays
Strength will rise as I wait
I'm trusting every word You say
I know that You will not delay
In Your timing, Your timing
I know that You will have your way
You began a good work and You promised to complete it
You began a good work inside my heart
You began a good work but for now I'm still unfinished
You began a good work inside my heart
You began a good work and You promised to complete it
You began a good work inside my heart
You began a good work but for now I'm still unfinished
You began a good work inside my heart
You began a good work and You promised to complete it
You began a good work inside my heart
You began a good work but for now I'm still unfinished
You began a good work inside my heart
Strength will rise as I wait
Strength will rise as I wait on You, Lord
My hope is in You God and I know You won't delay
Strength will rise as I wait
Strength will rise as I wait
Strength will rise as I wait on You, Lord
My hope is in You God and I know You won't delay
Strength will rise as I wait
