Patience
Do not be impatient in prayer
no matter how bleak it seems;
keep praying, for He hears and answers
though the naysayers may be mean.
Do not be impatient in prayer
though all else points to nothing;
just keep praying in all fervour
though the lights may blink and dim.
Do not be impatient in prayer
even for the slightest request;
for every boulder is made of a pebble
trust the Lord, He gives us the best.
Do not be impatient in prayer
for that thing you want so much;
it's not like making a wager
be patient, just go and have your lunch.
Believe me, I have been praying for years
and have yet to see my fruits;
it's like a plant that needs your shears
soon one day, the best of suits!
The results are rigged, the odds are great
as mentioned in Matthew 19:26
such are dreams that are duly made
much to win, a million or six!
So believe in God, as He has saith
again, in Matthew 19:26
"...with God all things are possible."
the biggest gift, O' heavenly bliss!
