Arranger Craig Curry has taken this well-known contemporary praise song and given it a Baroque twist. Bright and rhythmic, this setting will have broad appeal; the orchestral accompaniment track is provided with and without rhythm section.
Accompaniment CD is available here.

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Our God You reign forever
Our hope our strong Deliverer
You are the everlasting God, the everlasting God
You do not faint You won't grow weary
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Our God You reign forever
Our hope our strong Deliverer
You are the everlasting God, the everlasting God
You do not faint You won't grow weary
You're the defender of the weak, You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles
And He shall reign forever and ever!
You are the everlasting God, the everlasting God
You lift us up on wings like eagles
You are the everlasting God!
