I fell to my knees and prayed
but received no answer
So I prayed louder,
but the silence remained
So prayed softer and harder
and a soft, warm voice whispered
Be Patient
And I cried because God above all should know I’m impatient
I know, the voice calls
After all, I made you
Be Patient
I shout through the streaming tears, I’m trying
A warm embrace envelopes,
I know, remember
You are not alone
