Patience!



Yet true is God the faithful few
When oft His Light seems dim
He wants to see what man will do
If still we’re true to Him!

It’s good to wait with this in mind
Until The Lord returns
Seeking His strength, always to find
His Flame inside us burns

Sometimes it’s never quick enough
The Lord seems out of touch
We turn once more to worldly stuff
When waiting gets too much

Did Christ not come to set us free?
Set broken hearts aglow
Does faith in him not make us see?
There’s nowhere else to go?

Our time is in the Saviour’s hand
Each second, hour & day
When this we learn to understand
The Lord may have His way

For hearts to change, where lives ignite
Can sometimes take a while
But patience, brings The Father’s Light
And faith; will see Him smile

The Lord our God is never late
His timing never wrong
Miracles come to those who wait
Heaven knows just how long

Receive with grace, the time He’s sent
Each moment God has blessed
For life, our service is the rent
And patience, endless rest…
