They That Wait Upon The Lord - sung by Jack Marti

This is actually a combination of two scripture songs. The first part (Isaiah 40:31) is a fairly well known melody, but the second part (Psalm 27:14,13) I learned from a friend who learned it from sheet music. The sheet music actually had a different melody for the Isaiah part, but I prefer the other melody, so I used it instead and then used the melody that I learned from my friend for the Psalm 27 part. I don't know the composer of either melody, but I think they work well together.

They that wait upon the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up
With wings as eagles;
They shall run and not be weary;
They shall walk and not faint.
Teach me, Lord,
Teach me, Lord, to wait.

Wait upon the Lord,
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen thine heart. (x 2)
I had often fainted
Unless I had believed
To see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living.
Wait upon the Lord,
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen thine heart
Wait, I say, upon the Lord.

Thank you for posting this! The first half is my favorite scripture and hymn. I've been teaching it to my kids. Your mash-up of the two songs is beautiful and folksy. Do you still have the sheet music? Could you scan it and email it to me if it isn't too much trouble?

I'm going to learn this one on my new Taylor!

The Lord bless us all as we wait upon Him!

Very, very well done. Thanks for the effort and your heart in wanting to share this with all of us out here. We had Psalm 37 at prayer group tonight and it has lots about waiting on the Lord :-)
