Patience
Somedays it hurts
Waiting for an answer
To sooth your nerves

By a lack of words
You're slain
You're swerved
Stress fills your thoughts
As you're falling from the earth

Just one more day
Just one more step
Taken on broken glass
Furious embers and infected tacks

Your skin crawls
Trapped by thick walls
Untill you BREAK!
Wash your face and regather your strength

So
You
Wait
In faith you pray
For a steady hand
To stitch better days

Tribulation
Is all part of the plan
Every uncomfortable step
Serves to shape a better man

When you're blown apart
Thorns puncture your heart
There is a lesson in each prickling pain
For those who do remain

Your sorrow is not senseless
You suffering's not in vain
God turns the tumultuous seas
To bring gifts of recovery

Patience
There is an end to doubt
When God is on your side
Turning the world around
