Inspired Song
Dear friends,
I just wanted to share a song with you that the Lord gave me a couple of years ago. I have taught it to people who were at VCS at Saints Haven in 2019, and my Dad had me sing it for Missionary Branch when he preached there one time. I don’t have the music on paper, yet, but I am trying. I just wanted to share it with you. The Lord is pleading with us because He doesn’t want to lose anyone.

I Have Waited (for so long)
By Cathy J. Vreeland
1. I have waited for so long
For My People to be one;
To Choose Me and heed My Voice
As a banner of your choice.
Refrain 1: O, to be your hearts’ desire
Flaming with Celestial Fire;
Turn to Me, My Faithful Bride,
And in Zion we’ll abide.
2. Heav’n and I are calling you
To seek Me in all you do.
Things on earth cannot compare
To My Glory waiting there.
Refrain 2: I’ve loved you beyond compare;
Love Me most, but don’t stop there.
Love your neighbor as yourself;
He means more than earthly wealth.
3. Ask for guidance. Seek My face,
My forgiveness and My Grace.
I can turn your lives around,
So My blessings can abound.
Refrain 3: Time to study, fast and pray
Is a need for you each day.
If you’d be My Witness true,
I’ll prepare a place for you.
4. Be the people of your God
Holding fast the Iron Rod.
Conquer evil, sin and strife,
And embrace Eternal Life.
Refrain 4: I’ll be yours, and you’ll be Mine;
Holy Branches of My Vine.
Cease division – nor repine.
Be you one, or you’re not Mine.
(Repeat Refrain 1)
Music divinely inspired on February 22, 2019 while I was driving to work that morning. Music I had never heard kept flowing through my mind so I recorded it on my phone by humming it when I got to my office parking lot. First verse lyrics divinely inspired on March 5, 2019 when I was at work that morning. Second through fourth verses divinely inspired April 2, 2019 when I went back to bed after getting up at 4:30 a.m. to fix breakfast for the men in my house who were going to be leaving for work. The words to the 2nd verse kept going through my head so I couldn’t sleep. So…I got up and wrote them down, then was given more to write. Needless to say I was then up for the day. Oops! The Lord wasn’t finished, yet. He gave me refrains for every verse early this morning when I couldn’t sleep, (April 25, 2019).
