Trust and Just Wait

Often when I am impatient And my heart says, "now, right now"

Representative Text

1 Often when I am impatient
And my heart says, “now, right now,”
Then my Saviour softly answers
With a quiet voice and low.

Refrain:
Trust and just wait,
Trust and just wait,
Thus Jesus my Saviour speaks to me,
Trust and just wait,
Trust and just wait,
And it will be well with thee.

2 If it be thy will to keep me
Here to serve the small or great
Or by death to glorify thee,
Help me just to trust and wait. [Refrain]

3 Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Give me patience now to wait
Help me evermore to trust thee,
Till I stand beyond the gate. [Refrain]
