Wait on the Lord, wait patiently, And thou shalt in Him be blest; After the storm, a holy calm, And after thy labor rest. Refrain Wait on the Lord, for whom hast thou On earth or in heaven but He? Over thy soul a watch He keeps, Wherever thy path may be. Wait on the Lord, wait cheerfully, And He will thy youth renew; Wait on the Lord obediently, Whatever He bids thee do. Refrain Wait on the Lord, wait lovingly, Confide in His care thy all; Those that abide in perfect peace No danger can e'er befall. Refrain Wait on the Lord, wait joyfully, For then shall thy heart be strong; Lo! by His hand He leadeth thee, And thou shalt be filled with song. Refrain
