He Listens

The door bell rang while I was asleep
And since I was asleep it rang only once
I guess He didn't want to wake me up
For He's known how I've had a hectic weekend 

A letter came in for me
A letter I'd been waiting for a while
Most days I'd run to check my mail
But today I was in no rush at all 

I guess I had the feeling I'd been answered
That my wait was worth it
For finally something came through for me
To brighten up my day for its been chilly 

The words on the letter were precise
"Go forth my son I've heard you
I've seen how you've been patient
It's time for you to receive now" 

That why I went out today overjoyed
For I got an answer, an answer I needed
And now I can look on to the days to come
Knowing that He listens, it just takes time to get through
