the pursuit of you part 2: if you told me to wait again i would

 


If you told me to wait again, I would



Lord, I've cried and cried, barely holding onto patience,

For a bride of my own, one to love, to cherish, and to hold,

Finally ive found her whom my heart loves under your guidance, I've obeyed and followed your direction, done all I was told. 


Years have I waited, searched, but could not find,

A woman worth more than rubies, and gold, and silver that does not last.

A woman, my heart would be safe in her hands, and hers in mine.

Till the day you brought her to me, and I had a companion all of my own at last.


But Lord, if it were all gone tomorrow,

Praise would still be yours, with all I could, 

Your plans for me are good, so I would not weep for sorrow, 

But worship on my lips, if you told me to wait again, I would.


Lamentations 3:25 (ESV)
“The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.”

Psalm 37:7 (KJV)
“Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way…”

********

sometimes the bravest thing is to surrender all to God and trust the Creator above our own desires
