Shore Lane is back with their latest single, "I Wait, and I'll Wait (Psalm 13)," a soulful anthem of trust and perseverance. Perfect for the Advent season, this cross-genre collaboration captures the bittersweet tension of waiting on God as we wait for what's to come, creating an auditory braid of patience, faith, and surrender.
"I Wait, and I'll Wait (Psalm 13)" envelopes you in the signature harmonies that have come to define Shore Lane, with the vocals of Shane and Lauren Welter snaking around each other in an almost call-and-response fashion that reflects both the rawness of lament and doggedness of devotion. A lush arrangement elevates the duo's folk-adjacent worship sound: sparkling electric guitars, circling melodic keys, warm layers of acoustic, and a metronomic rhythm section. The result? A track that's intimate and sweeping a whispered prayer on the wind.
"I Wait, and I'll Wait (Psalm 13)" is fundamentally a meditation on Psalm 13, a passage that struggles with God's silence yet ends up holding on to his faithfulness. Shore Lane turns that ancient longing into a contemporary worship experience, welcoming you into a sacred waiting space but not losing your heart.
Outside the studio, the husband and wife pair have spent more than a decade enchanting concertgoers, from Seattle's coffeehouses to European tours that took their sound to the River Thames, Edinburgh's storied streets, and Galway's lively pubs. Their songwriting ability to capture deep emotions has placed them as a name to look out for in modern worship.
Through "I Wait and I'll Wait," Shore Lane reminds us that waiting isn't wasted ; it's where faith develops, melodies ascend, and hope persists.
