"Wait" by Colonial Heights Worship: God Is Working in the Wait


Colonial Heights Worship - Wait

What do you do when the waiting feels unbearable? 

“Wait” by Colonial Heights Worship offers a powerful perspective on waiting. Life can break people. Seasons arrive that can leave you exhausted, hollow, and desperate for relief — and you may feel that God is distant. The writers of this song knew that feeling quite well. “Wait” is a song for those moments: the pain, the broken places, the tears, the mourning. The song doesn’t dismiss the suffering, but acts as a compass that helps you get through it. 

Colonial Heights Worship names the struggles, “In the pain, in the broken // In tears, in the mourning.” Immediately followed by a declaration that changes everything: “Your love will never fail.” That’s the key message of the song, based on scripture. “But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” — Isaiah 40:31 (ESV) 

Waiting on God isn’t passive. It’s an act of trust, a daily decision to believe His character when your circumstances contradict it. The song encourages you to call upon the Lord, to turn your ear to heaven, and to receive the whisper of His peace. It’s the kind of peace that only He can give. He protects you in His peace, even when life is crushing you. 

Stop focusing on your struggles and focus on the One who holds the outcome. Listen to Wait by Colonial Heights Worship and let it encourage you to find true peace in Him. “Cause in the wait You are working // For my good, for Your glory.”

(Related scripture: Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 62:5; Romans 8:28)

Background:

"Wait" is a song for the moments in life when you feel tired, broken, hopeless, and desperate for God to deliver you from your present hurt. It's a reminder that God will bring His people out of their troubles and into His presence in eternity.

Release date: May 22, 2026

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...

"Worthy Of All Praise" by Brady Jones: Finding God's Love After Searching in the Wrong Places

Have you searched for love in all the wrong places? Brady wrote “Worthy Of All Praise” at 4 am, wide awake and wrestling with some really tough obstacles that he was facing at the time. He’d spent a season chasing love in places that left him empty. At one point, he remembered who God actually is — not a distant idea, but a living, rising, never-failing presence. The lyrics capture that exact moment: “What love is like this? His love is priceless. A love that would live, a love that would die, a love that’s gonna rise again.” Brady shares: “Our God’s love transcends all understanding and his power towers over all. If there is anything that I would love my listeners to get from this song, it is that no matter where you are, and no matter how hopeless you think you are, there is a God who you can cling to and embrace through any season of life.” In Revelation 1:8 we read: “‘I am the Alpha and the Omega,’ says the Lord God, ‘who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.’” Brady e...
