Wait upon me Lord I cried and felt He had not heard.
Hollering louder, I called again and apparently received no reply.
Eager to gain His attention, I called again, least He passed me by.
Not a sound nor movement showed He heard my willful strident cry.
God, I cried out when ever felt I needed Him, then went my own willful way.
Oh I walked my path, not heeding His narrow way.
Demanding of Him His grace and love according to my will.
In great frustration, thus, I called again and received not even a sigh.
Shouting, calling, sometimes making fun, I continued my own way.
Savior mine, You said not a word in reproof, but heard my every word.
In You love is personified, yet I failed to see how much You truly love me.
Lord you gave Your life to rescue me from eternal death before I said a word.
Emanuel You quietly answered my prayer long before I called out to You, I hadn’t seen nor heard.
Note, all You asked in return was faithfulness, my Lord, this is true.
Truth is also my Lord, Your loving heart had heard my every word.
