Needing a little on-the-road encouragement, I purchased “WOW Gospel 2010” a few months ago. Thirty of the most popular songs of gospel radio are in this collection, and I have enjoyed them all.
But there’s one song in particular that I find myself playing over and over–Fred Hammond’s “They That Wait,” which turns Isaiah 40:31 into uplifting lyrics. This song is chicken soup for your musical soul.
It turns out Nathan has a thing for my song, too. Recently, I took the disc with Hammond’s song out of my car to play at home. The other disc remained in the car, so I listened to it almost exclusively while driving (“Back II Eden” is awesome, too). Nathan noticed the change. “Mom,” he says, “play ‘They That Wait.’” “Sorry, Buddy, it’s in the house,” I said.
I told him I’d put it back in, but I kept forgetting, and he kept requesting. I finally remembered to put it back in the car today, so we are -once again- rolling down the road and mounting up with wings! See if this rings your bell, too:
