GOD WAITS FOR ME

As far as the eye can see;

Over land and out to sea

Through every season faced,

My God patiently waits for me

And with open arms I come.

Wherever my feet may lead me;

Along the path and byways

Pressing on or taking a pause -

My God patiently waits for me

With open arms, I run to him.

When we're running the race;

Setting our own steady pace

Look up towards the finish line,

My God patiently waits for me,

And with open arms I come.

In the ebb and flow of daily life;

Seasons come and they go

Hear creation sing holy, holy

My God patiently waits for me,

With open arms, I run to him.

Daily God walks with me;

He knows the route I'm to take

Day and night, He has time

When God patiently waits for me

And with open arms I come.
