Just Wait

Sometimes I ask the question,
"My Lord, is this Your will?"
It's then I hear You answer me,
"My precious child...be still."



Sometimes I feel frustrated,
'Cause I think I know what's best.
It's then I hear You say to me,
"My busy child...just rest."



Sometimes I feel so lonely
And I think I'd like a mate.
Your still small voice gets
Oh, so clear and says,
"My child...please wait."



"I know the plans I have for you,
The wondrous things you'll see;
If you can just be patient, child,
And put your trust in Me.



I've plans to draw you closer.
I've plans to help you grow.
There's much I do you cannot see
And much you do not know.



But know this, Child...
I love you.
You are precious unto Me.
Before I formed you in the womb,
I planned your destiny.



I've something very special
I hope for you to learn.
The gifts I wish to give to you
Are gifts you cannot earn.



They come without a price tag,
But not without a cost;
At Calvary, I gave My Son,
So you would not be lost.



Rest child, and do not weary
Of doing what is good.
I promise I'll come back for you
Just like I said I would.



Your name is written in the book of life,
I never could forget;
Therefore, do not be discouraged
When My answer is...not yet."
