I WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THE LORD

Patience is a virtue few have cultivated;

It is discipline that is very much needed.

We cannot hurry God into replying;

Impatience is even more trying!

 

Patience is something God wants us to learn;

It cultivates humility as we wait on Heaven.

We learn what it means to exercise trust in God;

Worrying and fear do not express faith in the Lord.

 

Patience wins the day when God gives His response;

Trusting in the LORD would be noted as of importance.

He will deliver us from the pit of miry clay;

He will rescue us and truly save the day!

 

The Lord will give us a new song of victory;

It would be one that speaks of waiting patiently.

The song of joy will praise the Lord’s mighty hand;

Many will hear and see and they will comprehend.
