Waiting On The Lord
 
When prayers aren't answered, quickly or right away,
Just ask the Lord, to reveal to you, the reason for His delay.
 
If the answer for that request just seems to take too long,
Just lift up your hands and praise Him, with a glorious new song.
 
Just wait on the Lord, and try to be still,
'Cause your request may not be in God's will.
 
If that is the case, just praise Him again,
He won't steer you wrong 'cause He's your friend.
 
Maybe you'll learn patience, a little trust too.
Or maybe your motives you'll need to review.
 
Ask Him for an answer, the way He sees fit.
But don't lose hope and don't you quit.
 
The answer can be revealed in a miraculous way
So, be prepared to listen to what He has to say!
 
The answer will bring Him honor and glory,
And then you'll be able to tell your story.
 
Minister to those who did lose hope,
Who were looking for answers on how to cope!
 
 
Psalm 27:14 Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD!
