[Verse 1] Room lights low, drum box ticking like rain Clean chorus lines drift over the pane Whispered chords, soft glow on the floor You spoke once, and the skies opened their door Oceans stashed like records in sleeves Stars take their cues from the sound You breathe [Chorus] We sing a new song, quiet and clear Name above names, close like You’re near Hold us, shield us, keep us still We wait on You, we wait on Your will Let kindness fall on us tonight We wait on You, our calm and our light [Verse 2] Kings write plans on vapor and steam Crowns weigh nothing against what You deem You stand firm when the headlines shake You cancel storms that the proud ones make Happy the ones who call You their own Built on Your word, steady as stone [Chorus] We sing a new song, quiet and clear Name above names, close like You’re near Hold us, shield us, keep us still We wait on You, we wait on Your will Let kindness fall on us tonight We wait on You, our calm and our light [Bridge] From Your window You see every street You formed our frame, pulse and beat No fast horse can rush us to peace Your mercy rides in, our fretting must cease [Chorus] We sing a new song, quiet and clear Name above names, close like You’re near Hold us, shield us, keep us still We wait on You, we wait on Your will Let kindness fall on us tonight We wait on You, our calm and our light [Outro] Warm bass hums, daylight far away Keep us in hope till the blue turns gray Let kindness rest while the night is long We wait on You—our shield, our song
