Josh Garrels - Don't Wait For Me Lyrics






Please don't wait for me
I lost my way again
I lost my job, I walked away
From the life that I was leading with my friends
When I was young I dreamed
Of a life that had freedom that had joy
Oh life it crushed my soul
With its cruel demands and fool's gold

Please don't wait for me
I lost my way again
I lost my house and my good name
When I found the road of my king
When I was young I dreamed
Of a life that had beauty that had joy
But now I lost my life
For the one I dreamt of as a boy

Please don't wait for me
I ain't coming back again
I cannot turn around
From the place I'm going to where I've been

    Why is it we don’t know more about this amazing artist and his sublime and beautiful music about what really matters?

  2. S.... S....

    one of my favorites. all-time.

  3. T.... A....

    So this year I felt that I really needed to turn my life around.. So I was gay and all that into that lifestyle.. My friends I valued so much were gay to, so I'd club around do weed, party just live life doing what I felt like. So turns out this year I felt an awakening Jesus is coming soon u know.. Then I began to feel myself change.. Started to loose my desires towards girls.. So my friends would wonder why am no longer dating.. I has it going on well u know I stopped weed.. H since I was heading back to campus I fell to the same routine.. Now I came back home still had that awakening moment really Jesus is coming I need to make it right.. So I decided to leave my friends.. Be done with that gay lifestyle.. I just lost touch with the girl I was hooking up with.. Loosing my friends has been tough am still trying to show them the peace and love that comes with Jesus u know.. Bh it seems they just don't want anything to do with me.. So loosing them is tough, loosing my lifestyle hard.. U know am a loner and the only friends I had either took weed, did drugs or gay u know.. Now I've decided to leave all that behind For Jesus.. And I believe its through Him all this is happening.. U know Our FATHERS timing is always perfect.. Now am looking forward through faith..

    Cela faisait très longtemps...que je n'avais pas pleurée en écoutant une belle chanson et musique, si profonde....Merci infiniment Mr Josh Garrels ;) It was a long time ago ... that I had not cried while listening to a beautiful song and music, so profound...Thank you very much Mr Josh Garrels ;)

  5. B.... N....

    This song has affected me more profoundly than any other song ever in my 34 years on Earth. It so simply and beautifully speaks what happens when we follow our King instead of the world. A journey I'm just now taking.

  6. B.... V....

    I lost my house and my good name... reminds my story, when i was a homeless abandoned by my family and by institutions and the evil bureaucracy.

  7. 2.... ....

    I love hearing a song for the first time that sounds just awesome 👏🏻

  8. D.... W....

    I like Josh, I can't stop listening to them,.. I need more,. +++ Peace & Love,++++

  9. S.... 8....

    Oh god I hope it’s not a religious song...

  10. H.... S....

    It’s talking about walking with the Lord. So amazing. Praise Jesus

  11. B.... T....

    I think you can interpret any song how you want that's the best thing about music

  12. a.... c....

    I used to listen to this song all the time. lost my phone I had it downloaded on for 2 years haven't heard it but would explain it to people as it sounds like Jose Gonzalez might sing it & it hurts to finish it. Tonight thought about it again & decided to download Pandora & go through my likes where I found it & so many more gems! Cheers to music 🎶🎶🎶🎵

  13. r.... ....

  17. J.... B....

    I heard this song for the first time today and I love this song. it's truly ass ! ! ! got that old time county blues feel to it ! ! !

    J.... B....

    Hahaha never seen the word ass used like that before

    J.... B....

    +Andrew Case lmao ! ! ! either did I ! ! ! These stupid smart phone features like Swype, auto correct, and word prediction are going to cause the end of civilization. lol

    J.... B....

    +James Behrje I think what I was trying to say was "it's truly bad ass" ! ! ! Lol

  18. J.... ....

    had sex to this song the first time i heard it

    J.... ....

    love sex on it

    J.... ....

    FukkPhayce it's actually about being a Christian

    J.... ....

    that's too bad, but a lot of creative types are out of touch with reality so it's not surprising

    J.... ....

    The reality that nothing blew up and created everything? Yeah, how can he not see the logic in that one?

    J.... ....

    John wtf man

  19. L.... K....

    i am no christian person. but i like that song. didn't even get that the song is about jesus..

    L.... K....

    I feel ya man lol. I like this guys style so much I can't help but listen. I don't believe in any God personally but that's not keeping me from listening to this song.

    L.... K....

  23. M.... a....

    When you leave that old "life" to walk with Jesus you lose some along the way and all the foolish "gold" of this life mean nothing anymore...

  30. S.... F....

    I always think I've found my favorite song from him...until I hear the next one. He has such an anointing from God to be able to convey such depth and emotion in so few words. His songs touch places that are hidden deep inside. Such a beautiful song!

  31. w.... ....

  32. A.... T....
