[INTRO]
| C# | F# | A#m G# | F# |

[VERSE 1]
C#                     F#                        A#m
   I've spent too much time in the corners of my mind 
G#               F#
Sparring with my shadow side
C#                   F#                        A#m
   I'm crashing into walls that don’t exist at all 
    G#             F#
I'm drowning in my cortisol
A#m   G#              F#
   No one can live on that alone

[CHORUS]
          C#           F#
So I will wait, I will wait
A#m            G#     F#
Let the Lord renew my strength
        C#           F#
I will wait, I will wait
A#m            G#     F#
Let the Lord renew my strength

[TURN]
| G# | 

[VERSE 2]
C#                 F#                      A#m
   Fear moves at a pace that no one can sustain 
      G#              F#
Fight flight or disassociate
    G#                           F#
But I will cling to Christ, from ashes I will rise

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE] [x2]
G#                     A#m   F#
   That weight's gonna lift,    that dawn's gonna break
G#                         A#m F#
   We’ll run like the wind and not grow faint 
G#                     A#m   F#
   That weight's gonna lift,    that dawn's gonna break
G#                  A#m   F#                 (C#)
   On eagle’s wings we’ll fly away, fly away


[CHORUS]

[TAG]
      A#m                   G#       F#
We’ll run like the wind and not grow faint 
   A#m                 G#           F#
On eagle’s wings we’ll rise and fly away
       (C#)
I will wait
