[Title: Wait In Grace]
[Style: Gospel R&B Ballad], [Soulful Pop], [Inspirational], [Emotional Build], [Choir]
[Intro]
[Music Tag: Soft Piano, Pulsing R&B Beat, Vulnerable Female Vocal]
(Whispered) How do I wait for you...
And still hold true to what I believe?
(Ad-lib: Ooh, time is ticking...)
[Verse 1]
[Music Tag: Smooth R&B Groove]
The doors are revolving with new possibilities
More scary than the last
How do I even open the door to that?
I don't even know what to think anymore
I've been through so many battles
I just want to get through this...
[Pre-Chorus]
[Music Tag: Music swells, Gospel Organ enters, Tension builds]
My human heart is longing, the passion is the spark
But passion fades and leaves you broken in the dark
I'm looking for the love that endures...
(Ad-lib: The love that endures...)
[Chorus]
[Music Tag: Full Band, Soaring Vocals, Layered Harmonies, Gospel Choir]
I want to wait in grace
Not run this anxious race
Holding true to what I believe
'Cause nothing lasts forever, only You, my God, for me
I'm made clean through the blood, so I'm not gonna rush
(Ad-lib: No more longing...)
I will wait in grace.
[Verse 2]
[Music Tag: Groove returns, Confident Vocal]
I've been longing... (Ad-lib: yes, I have)
And I'm scared we'll never meet
But I'm standing on the truth that makes me complete
You've known me since my mother's womb
And You love me as I am
So I won't settle for a feeling, I'm waiting for Your plan.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Music Tag: Music swells again, Choir hums]
'Cause passion is the spark that burns out fast
But patience is the love that's built to last
I'm looking for the love that endures...
(Ad-lib: The only love that endures...)
[Chorus]
[Music Tag: Full Band, Soaring Vocals, Gospel Choir, Ad-libs]
I want to wait in grace!
Not run this anxious race!
Holding true to what I believe!
'Cause nothing lasts forever, only You, my God, for me!
I'm made clean through the blood, so I'm not gonna rush!
(Ad-lib: I'm not gonna rush, no!)
I will wait in grace!
[Bridge]
[Music Tag: Music drops to just Piano & Strings, Intimate, powerful vocal]
No one is perfect...
Real life is not perfection, but perseverance
It's refining and it's growing
So, Lord, I'm letting go of knowing...
I'm letting go of all my anxious plans...
I'm just gonna trust Your hand...
[Music Tag: Drums start a slow, building roll, Cymbals swell]
[Final Chorus]
[Music Tag: MASSIVE, Full band, Drums crashing, Soaring ad-libs, Key Change Optional]
I'M GONNA WAIT IN GRACE!
NOT RUN THIS ANXIOUS RACE!
HOLDING TRUE TO WHAT I BELIEVE!
'CAUSE NOTHING LASTS FOREVER, ONLY YOU, MY GOD, FOR ME!
I'M MADE CLEAN THROUGH THE BLOOD, SO I'M NOT GONNA RUSH!
I WILL WAIT IN GRACE!
[Outro]
[Music Tag: Fading Piano & Strings, Echoing Vocals]
I will wait...
(Ad-lib: Ooh, just wait in grace...)
Passion is the spark... but patience is the love...
I'll wait...
(Piano fades to silence)
