Soar my sisters soar

I never prayed for patience 
It was not my forte 
as I'm one who wants things 
to always move right away
but I've learned that life 
is like planting a seed. 
It will grow in its own time 
and we can't really intercede
 
now imbibition comes first 
that's when the water enters in 
it activates the seed's enzymes 
so growth can now begin 
the seed then develops a root
it commences to sprout and shoot
and the process of photomorphogenesis begins to take place
when the light comes in 
and determines that seed's growth rate 

and like the seed of God
His anointed word 
it grows inside of us
usually unobserved 
it moves at its own pace
it renews us from inside
it moves with a mighty strength 
that never ever subsides

so wait on the Lord
let God take you to germination 
wait on the Lord
with patience and a godly determination
and know that God has already cleared 
the runways in your life
you're now ready for takeoff 
so just enjoy the flight
soar my sisters soar 
like eagles flying high
soar my sisters soar 
it's time to take the skies 

so take the time and recognize the shift 
when God moves about 
realize and summarize that
the process is tantamount 
soar my sisters soar
it's time to run and not grow weary 
soar my sisters soar 
walk and never be faint nor dreary

let God pour into you 
so that you may sprout and grow shoot
let God imbibiate you 
so you may get those spiritual roots
soar my sisters soar 
take flight like an eagle
soar my sisters soar
rise above all of life upheavals 

your destined for greatness
for you have been ordained 
soar my sister soar
now go fly high in Jesus's name
