These are some songs I have been listening to that have been bringing me strength and comfort as we are going through this season of waiting. I made a list of songs like this when Lance was going through cancer treatment and thought I would share some of the ones I have been listening to now while going through this season of waiting through infertility.
Top 10 Songs:
- “In the Waiting” by Kina Grannis. This song is talking about how “life is in the waiting” and that we shouldn’t forget to keep living in the moment as we are going through the time of waiting. I think another part of why I like this song is the timbre of her voice and the acoustic background music that she has. It’s calming and grounding.
- “Truth I’m Standing On” by Leanna Crawford. This song is talking about those doubts and fears that we have but also the hope and goodness that we find in God’s promises. The Truth is that He is faithful forever and won’t let us fall. All the pain will have a purpose, even if we can’t see it yet.
- “Build a Boat” by Colton Dixon. Words that come to my mind when I hear this song are hope, faith, trust, and promise.
- “Still” by Amanda Cook. When we are facing fear, we need to remember that God is always there, to remember to be still know that He is God.
- “Still” by Hilary Scott & The Scott Family. Sometimes we try to take control of whatever it is we are holding on to in our lives. This song helps to remind us that God is always there to move mountains and answer our prayers before we even speak them. All we need to be is still.
- “Even If” by MercyMe. My favorite lyrics are “I know You’re able and I know You can, save through the fire with your mighty hand, but even if You don’t, my hope is You alone”
- “After Dark” by Tori Harper. You just have to listen to all of the lyrics of this song. I love it so much! Here’s the chorus: “There’s life after sadness, there is hope after madness, there is joy after a broken heart, and there’s light after the dark”.
- “Fear is a Liar” by Zach Williams. One thing I keep remembering is that faith is greater than fear, and this song helps to remind me of that.
- “I will fear no more” by The Afters. Some of my favorite lyrics “You’re my courage when I worry in the dead of night, You’re my strength ‘cuz I’m not strong enough to win this fight, You are greater than the battle raging in my mind, I will trust you Lord, I will fear no more”.
- “Trust in You” by Lauren Daigle. This one has been one of my favorites for a long time. “When you don’t give the answers, as I cry out to you, I will trust in You”.
These are just some of the songs that have helped me walk through this journey. What are some that you would add?
