Praying For Patience

Praying for patience don't know what your getting into
After this, you will have a clue,
Patience to me brings about a change 
But in the end, there will be much to gain.

A battle is a fight, a fight to the end
Get your strength for God and you will win,
One fight, two fight, three then four
Problems keep coming knocking on your door.

Trials will come to strengthen you
It's up to you whether you make it through,
The word says stand and stand firm
Do you know God is still concern?

Concern that you will make it out alright
As long as, you don't give up the fight,
keep leaning on God, he'll give you strength
Then you'll realize, the fight wasn't even a good length,
Search your heart deep inside
Then you'll know if your prayer was wise.
