We sang this song at Epping Presbyterian in Sydney today at the conclusion of their children’s talk.
It’s from a Sovereign Grace music kid’s album, To Be Like Jesus.
It makes me feel all wiggly.
Or something.
1
When I don’t get what I want (whoa)
And things take longer than they ought (whoa)
Waiting’s hard for me to do
But I know one thing that’s true
CHORUS
Jesus, You will always be
Patient, gently teaching me
I see in You what I want to be
2
When my sister isn’t kind (whoa)
And when my brother takes what’s mine (whoa)
Loving’s harder than it seems
Show me, Lord, what patience means
BRIDGE
Wait, wait, gotta wait, wait, gotta wait
When it’s hard to, but You say to
Wait, wait, gotta wait, wait, gotta wait
For the right time, Your time, not mine
Wait, wait, gotta wait, wait, gotta wait
For my brothers, sisters, and others
Wait, wait, gotta wait, wait, gotta wait
‘Cause I want to be more like You
Music and Words by Rich Gunderlock, Jonathan Baird, Ryan Baird, and Eric Grover
