Teach Me, Lord, To Wait

Teach me, Lord, to wait

Down on my knees,

Till in Your own good time

You answer my pleas;

Teach me not to rely

On what others do,

But to wait in prayer

For an answer from You.

They that wait upon the Lord,

Shall renew their strength,

They shall mount up with wings

as eagles,

They shall run and not be weary,

They shall walk and not faint;

Teach me, Lord,

Teach me, Lord, to wait.

Teach me, Lord, to wait

While hearts are aflame,

Help me humble my pride

And call on Your Name;

Keep my faith renewed,

Keep my eyes on Thee,

Help me be on this earth

What You want me to be.
