Willing to Wait
Noah was a truly patient man
So God called him to build an ark
And in the middle of the driest land
Where faith just like dust blew apart
Throughout so many years
And through some dark despair
Noah's faith was building strong
The hope and promise that the Lord had shared
It gave him the strength to carry on
So no matter how dark this life may seem
We can stand on His word with believing
That He will never forsake us
When there's one thing we're willing to do
You gotta be willing to wait on Him
Just wait upon the Lord
Put every bit of your faith in Him
'Cause He'll open heaven's door
You gotta be willing to wait on Him
For His blessing He'll reward
If we don't accelerate
We can then celebrate
If we can just wait, wait on the Lord
Even though the winds of life blow swiftly by
The pace of His grace we will feel
And in our times of need let's realize
That the hope in His word is so real
So no matter what life may have in store
We will know that His will is worth waiting for
And He will never forsake us
When there's one thing we're willing to do
You gotta be willing to wait on Him
(You got to, you got to)
Just wait upon the Lord
Put every bit of your faith in Him
'Cause He'll open heaven's door
You gotta be willing to wait on Him
For His blessing He'll reward
If we don't accelerate
We can then celebrate
If we can just wait
You gotta be willing to wait on Him
Wait on the Lord
(Got to be willing)
Put your faith in Him
'Cause He'll open heaven's door
(Got to be willing to wait on Him)
You got to wait on Him
For His blessing He'll reward
If we don't accelerate
We can then celebrate
If we can just wait
You got to wait on Him
Just wait upon the Lord
(Gotta, gotta)
Put every bit of your faith in Him
'Cause He'll open heaven's door
You've got to wait on Him
For His blessing He'll reward
If we don't accelerate
We can then celebrate
If we can just wait, wait on Him
If we're willing to wait
