"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

"Psalm 112 (I'm Confident)" by Young Presley: No Fear in Bad News

What is your house built on?  We all face bad news at some point or other in life. It could be a diagnosis, a layoff, a broken relationship — the question isn’t whether hard news will come, but how you’ll respond when it happens. Young Presley wrestled with that question while he was writing his song “Psalm 112 (I’m Confident)”. The song is part of a Psalms series, coming from a simple vision: turn scripture into music that people will actually listen to. These songs are not intended as a substitute for reading the Bible, but an invitation to further read and explore the Bible. The chorus captures the key message of Psalm 112: “I do not fear bad news, I’m confident, trust in the Lord who cares to be my confidence.” That’s not the denial of bad news. It’s a decision to place your confidence and trust in God.  Look at what David wrote centuries ago in Psalm 112:7–8: “He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord. His heart is steady; he will not be afrai...

"Not Far From Us" by Divine Vibes: Stop Searching. Start Reaching.

The search can end right now. The Apostle Paul stood in Athens surrounded by altars and idols — a city full of people reaching toward something they couldn’t name. Among all their shrines, Paul spotted one inscription: “To an unknown God.” That moment became the opening of one of the most powerful declarations in Scripture. The people were already searching. They just didn’t know who they were searching for. “Not Far From Us” is a collaboration between Divine Vibes and House of Purpose. The track takes that same scene and sets it to Afro House and cinematic electronic music. Created directly from Acts 17, the lyrics move like Paul’s speech itself — from observation to revelation. “I found an altar to an unknown God // This God whom you worship without knowing // This is the one I’m telling you about.” Divine Vibes doesn’t just retell the story… he pulls you right into it. What Paul told the Athenians next also applies to each of us today: “Yet he is actually not far from each one of ...
