waiting room/feathers
[Chorus] [Clean electric guitar, syncopated drums, sub-bass] [Melodic male vocals with layered harmonies] We wanna be light as light and light as a feather We wanna fight a fair fight and endure to the end Till we are flying together, fly light as light and light as a feather We wanna be light as light and light as a feather We wanna fight a fair fight and endure till the end Till we are flying together, fly light as light and light as a feather [Verse 1] [Drums and bass continue, guitar becomes more sparse] [Spoken word delivery] A girl sits and waits, time stretches itself thin Her body hurts, nothing about it feels easy, nothing about it feels right And yet there is something else, she remains calm Not because everything is good, but because she directs the gaze to the LORD This joy is not loud, it simply is She sees the others in the room, those growing impatient Those who have waited too long, those afraid of what is coming Those in pain, if someone wants to, she speaks gently Comforts them because JESUS can, reminds them that prayer is never empty [Chorus] [Full band, melodic vocals return] We wanna be light as light and light as a feather We wanna fight a fair fight and endure till the end Till we are flying together, fly light as light and light as a feather We wanna be light as light and light as a feather We wanna fight a fair fight and endure till the end Till we are flying together, fly light as light and light as a feather [Verse 2] [Spoken word delivery] She sees the woman at the reception, stressed, tired, overworked And she truly thanks her, wishes her GOD's blessing She sees a child, ill, marked by time, and she smiles Not out of pity, but to give courage, praying quietly. Pain, bitterness, questions She knows all of this herself, pain, bitterness, questions But she notices something else now, joy in the Lord Not because circumstances change, but because JESUS is there And something begins to shift in the room, not visible, not loud, but real It becomes quieter, lighter, as if Peace is slowly taking space Like a small light, not coming from her but shining through her And she understands she is not alone There are others like her who carry HIS light that does not come from themselves Salt in a dull and foolish world, light in dark corners Not from their own strength, but from HIM [Outro] [Vocal ad-libs, fading instrumentation] As if peace is slowly taking space, like a small light Not coming from her but shining through her into twisted corners [Chorus melody repeats with vocalizations] Light as a feather [End]
