God's Delays

God's delays are not God's denials That more precious than gold be your faith's trials Wait for your hope no matter how hard it seems Though for now they may linger, remember your dreams Write them down, make them plain, don't let them die Keep them before your face, they shall speak and not lie For God is not unrighteous to forget your labor of love So work in faith with patience with power from above Following those who obtain His promises in due season God is a rewarder of the diligent for this reason He which began a good work in you performs to finish The good pleasure of His goodness, it will not diminish So let patience have her perfect work that you may realize In your heart on your lips with your ears before your eyes He makes dreams come true, just have faith like a child's For your vision... God's delays are not God's denials Inspired by John Hagee
