Story behind the song
This song is really my testimony in a very brief way. I was young when I first accepted Christ but lost my way and it was many many wasted years
Lyrics
MY EYES WAIT
CHORUS: I will lift up my eyes to the hills
I will say to my soul be still
With a heart that is yielded
My eyes they wait on you, my eyes they wait on you
VERSE: When I was young you said, wait here my child
but I was to impatient to wait, oh yea
When you said walk this way my child
I chose another path. I would not obey
lost my way then I cried, Lord show me the way
CHORUS: I will lift up my eyes to the hills
I will say to my soul be still
With a heart that is yielded
My eyes they wait on you, my eyes they wait on you
VERSE: This time I will not run ahead
This time I will not lag behind
This time I will choose to obey
Father you have been waiting on me
Now I will wait on you, my eyes will wait on you
CHORUS: I will lift up my eyes to the hills
I will say to my soul be still
With a heart that is yielded
My eyes they wait on you, my eyes they wait on you
BRIDGE: I was young and now am old
This is the cry of my soul
Father instruct me, teach me your way
And teach my eyes to wait on you
CHORUS: I will lift up my eyes to the hills
I will say to my soul be still
With a heart that is yielded
My eyes they wait on you, my eyes they wait on you
My eyes they wait on you, my eyes they wait on you
