🎵 Opening Worship Song: “I Will Wait on You”

Verse 1When the answers do not come,And the road ahead feels long,Still I know You hold the plan,And in Your hands I will stand.

ChorusI will wait on You, O Lord,Though the night is deep and cold.For Your Word is always true—And my heart will wait on You.

Verse 2When the heavens seem so still,Yet I know You work Your will.In the silence, I draw near,For Your whisper calms my fear.

ChorusI will wait on You, O Lord,Though the night is deep and cold.For Your Word is always true—And my heart will wait on You.

BridgeThough the world may rush ahead,I will trust what You have said.Better is one moment planned by YouThan a thousand in my hands too soon.

Final Chorus (soft)I will wait on You, O Lord…You are faithful evermore.

🎵 Closing Worship Song: “Still I Will Praise”

Theme: Hope in delay, spiritual endurance | Style: Reflective and melodic

Verse 1When the waiting wears me down,And I see no harvest crown,Still I know Your Word remains,Faithful God, You stay the same.

ChorusStill I will praise, still I will sing,Even without the answer You bring.My soul will rise, my heart will stay—Anchored in grace, day after day.

Verse 2When my prayers come back unheard,And I cannot feel Your Word,Still I stand on what is true—You are God, and You’ll come through.

ChorusStill I will praise, still I will sing,Even without the answer You bring.My soul will rise, my heart will stay—Anchored in grace, day after day.

OutroSo I wait… and I trust…And I worship, because You are enough.
