Lord I have waited this Long,
To sing you this song,
Never knew it will tarry,
Thank God for what we carry!
It is a song from my heart,
To appreciate you apart,
Praises not just to men,
But to you with cheerful mien:
You have lifted off my burden.
Oh! You made it so sudden!
And what a great relief Oh God!
That you chastise with a rod,
So I can stay in your love,
Peace descends like a dove,
Now I can flow with you again,
Thanks for removing the pain.
Your grace sufficient while it lasted,
I will praise you for what I have tasted,
And more for what you will reveal,
Of what the foe will conceal.
Much more than ever before,
I bless your holy name forevermore.
