Weary Hearts

Weary hearts in the wilderness cry
Waiting for strength to rise and fly
Every valley shall be raised high
Crooked paths made straight under open sky

Grass may wither, flowers fade away
Human glory passes like the day
But the breath of heaven blows strong and true
Enduring promise forever new

Those who wait shall renew their might
Soar on wings through the darkest night
Run without weariness, walk without faint
Strength from above, no fear or restraint
No fear or restraint
No fear or restraint

Nations like dust on an ancient scale
Islands light as grain in the gale
Who has measured the waters in hand
Or marked the heavens with a span

Those who wait shall renew their might
Mount up like eagles in morning light
Run and not tire, walk and endure
Power unending, forever sure
Power unending, forever sure

Why say your way is hidden from sight
Strength exhausted in endless fight
The everlasting One never grows weak
Gives power to faint, makes the weary speak

Those who wait shall renew their might
Rise on wings to astonishing height
Run without failing, walk without end
Strength everlasting, hope without bend
Strength everlasting, hope without bend

Strength everlasting, hope without bend
Hope without bend. Ohhhhhh!
Hope without bend. Yeah, yeah!
Hope without bend
