Just Wait...


God knows what He is doing
 
We keep living life, allowing the bruising
 
Free will was given, but we lost all the trust.
 
He did it for His own son, just to show us.
 
We were becoming spoiled not getting what we were wanting
 
Our fear kept speaking louder and louder until it became haunting.
 
We started to lose hope, faith, and the belief in prayer
 
God gave His ONLY son for us to see that He DOES care!
 
Lost and confused, I found myself going back to my knees
 
This time was different, I can feel you surrounding me.
 
Searching, waiting… Please, God come say something
 
I am giving up, yet again. My world seems to be bursting.
 
I felt broken, worthless like You will never show up
 
Until you do, and I knew I could get up.
 
Walk out the door and stand tall with You in me
 
I have the spirit, now don’t repeat history.
 
Where the spirit of the Lord is, there IS freedom
 
I fall to the alter and there you keep showing me the wisdom.
 
I walk away, I lose hope… but you never do
 
You never let go, even when I run away from you.
 
Someday, I will get to be with you and see your face
 
Until then, I won’t rush because it sure is not a race.
 
This is not my home, I am just walking through
 
You protect me here, until I am standing in front of you.
 
With all my burden I carried, gone forever.
 
There, I will know. You will leave never!
 
I will be finally free, for you standing holding me
 
My dream for so long, as I felt trapped in this world
 
Abuse and no one caring, you impearled.
 
Like my clam, you keep protecting with your mighty shell
 
Hovering over me, I know I am safe from Hell.
 
Not the fiery pits, but the pain inside
 
The pain I felt over and over until I cried.
 
You were always there, my biggest hero
 
You kept saving me, from those who were my foe.
 
I am yours forever, I won’t lose hope.
 
I will trust you for you are my way to cope.
 
I pray to you when things get tough
 
Love is hard to believe in, it is pretty rough.
 
I have faith again, because you love me
 
I know I believe in Love, because you gave it for me to be free.
 
Be still, Be Patient, Just wait
 
God will come, he will open the gate
 
The end is near, but you must not give up.
 
When you see His face, your tears will feel his cup.
 
For He will pour over you, and cleanse you from everything
 
You will be home, with the one and only King.
 
You wanted to give up so many times, He kept you patient
 
For what we will see, we can’t even imagine… Such beauty, so magnificent.
