Tune:  Praise God from whom all blessings flow...

My soul is waiting on You, Lord,
though hidden You are my reward,
What I don´t see in all my mist,
You see as if it does exist!   (Rom. 4:17)

I rather to Your word will cling
defying what the world may bring,
and even when You hide Your face,
I know before You is my case!  (Job 35:14)

So gladly in my morning prayer
I watch because I know You´re there,
Your Spirit whispers to my ear,
"Be patient, all your sighs I hear!"

So many names occur to me,
though far away God all does see,
before the Throne of grace we meet,
and there in Christ we take our seat!  (Eph. 2:6)

A precious friend is on the phone,
together through its cords we groan,
his business also is God´s case,
in time of need He´s there with grace!  (Hebr. 4:16)

Our frailties are surely there,
they often painful are to bear,
our age decay God still may use
the gospel tidings to diffuse!
