Patience is a virtue A sinners heart cannot afford When I feel God redirect me I’m still trying locked doors I’m breaking through windows Getting trespassed by my sin Knocking on houses of devils Waiting for God to let me in I’m climbing walls and scaling fences I’m calling for just the dial tone I’m so comfortable with the rejection That acceptance never felt like home Steady my heart, Jesus Whisper peace into my steps Let me lie down on Your sidewalk And in You find my rest Keep me from running this road This route that never goes far Keep me from paying a toll On a path You didn’t want me to start Keep me, Lord, keep me Don’t let me stray from Your grasp For when I decide my own steps I tend to fall into my own traps Fill in me a patience A heart that waits for my Savior Let me run only only only If it’s in the Kingdom’s favor
