When to Him I come and ask
for wisdom and understanding
to the questions I have,
with few answers to all that confuses the soul,
and though yet I trust Him
I know not what to do,
I ask still again, What is God doing?
What is the lesson here to be learned?
for too often I ask as if still to plead,
Did you not hear my prayer and my need?
There isn’t any doubt to all I believe,
but so often it’s hard to persevere,
and I wait on Him and think to myself,
did I not get it? Did I not hear?
And then, it is dawn and I see the sun
break through the clouds and fog now gone.
Sometimes it is like that with our heavy heart
when we are impatient, awaiting a breakthrough,
but soon rewarded; behold the Son.
