I waited patiently for the Lord; He inclined and heard my cry.
He brought me up out of a horrible pit; I shall remember to try.
He set my feet upon a rock; He established my trials way.
He put a song in my mouth; God knew that all will hear one day.
Praise unto our God; many shall see, and in our Lord trust.
For He has remembered our names; Praise to our God we must.
Many shall see in the Lord fear, and trust is divine; even today.
Many years have passed, but one day Jesus shall return to stay.
He shall stay with us until it’s His will to sweet heaven; we shall go.
Many are the wondrous works He hath done; in the sky and below.
Our mighty Lord and look at all the wondrous things He has done.
Then we should think of the Heaven, that through Him; have won.
Oh the evils that have compassed me about; my heart fails me.
My Lord has been pleased to deliver me; make haste that I may see.
Let them have shame and be confounded; my soul to destroy.
Let all that seek Thee rejoice gladness in Thee; In Thy Lord be joy.
Blessed is he that considers the poor; Our Lord shall bless; you see.
He is blessed upon the earth; God shall preserve thy soul and keep thee.
Heal my soul Lord, for I have sinned against Thee; whisper against me.
Make my soul proud Lord; Let me in Thy grace; to forever be…
