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

Let me humble my pride and call on Your name

Keep my faith renewed, my eyes on Thee

Let me be on this earth what you want me to be.

There's a time and a season for all things,

You promised in Your word to answer my pleas,

I'm crying to You, Lord to grant sweet relief,

Oh, Lord remove all my unbelief.

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, teach me Lord to wait.
