Conor Stone’s 'Waiting To Fly': Finding Faith and Purpose Through Music


Conor Stone's song 'Waiting To Fly' is deeply moving and relatable. Conor grew up immersed in church life, but in his teens, he drifted away. His life as a young professional musician more or less pushed his faith to the background. But life has a surprising way of bringing us back to our roots. 

Conor Stone - Waiting To FlyAt 36, Conor fell down two flights of stairs, an event that changed his life. Instead of broken bones, he woke up to a miraculous sense of being protected. Conor's doctor and the attending nurse were both astonished, remarking that 'God was looking out for you.' Call that a moment divine intervention, a rude awakening, that sparked a big change in Conor. He began writing worship songs, feeling guided by a higher purpose. 

'Waiting To Fly' captures this miraculous journey. The lyrics express a sincere longing to return to God's embrace. The chorus is very relatable, 'I was waiting, I was waiting to fly. With my God on high.' It speaks of standing firm in faith, despite what life hits you with, and trusting in God's perfect timing. 

Conor's story shows that Jesus is always with us and reaching out to us. Take a few minutes to listen to 'Waiting to Fly', especially if you too are feeling lost or disconnected. May Conor's journey encourage you during your journey to God.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 91:11-12; 2 Corinthians 5:17)

His heart is so full for God it overflows to others! His voice is so raw and it just brings you in. His songs are heart touching and they show his love for our Lord. I am so excited to share his music with everyone! Ben writes: 'I stood there surrounded by chain link fence and razor wire as the camera captured my beating heart. I shouted out with all I had in me, singing louder, and more emotional, in hopes you’d all see how I’ve changed. And somewhere in the middle of my performance, I began to cry, because I have been changed, and it wasn’t a music video, and right there, I realized that it was never you that I was singing to all along. Forever thankful for my life back.' 'Thank God, He chased this rebel (me) down. Never to return to the old life. Thank you Jesus.' We are happy to...
