The hardest thing in life I've found is learning how to wait,
While trusting that the Lord will be on time and never late.
And though He'll fill my needs and guide each step I take, I know,
Sometimes I think I cannot wait, for answers are too slow.
I worry, stew, and cry a lot, and vent to God in prayer,
While patiently He loves me and assures me He is there.
And when my troubles have gone by, and I can fully rest,
I realize my Lord in wisdom worked it for my best.
The anxious, teary hours I spent in fretting o'er my fate,
Perhaps could have been spared if I had only learned to wait.
I pray I'll be forgiven for impatience I have shown,
As daily I commune with God, and bow before His Throne;
While watching as He works to make the crooked places straight,
And shows me how to lean on Him, and teaches me to wait.
