WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM.

By Frances R. Havergal

God doth not bid thee wait, To disappoint at last; A golden promise, fair and great, In precept-mold is cast. Soon shall the morning gild The dark horizon-rim; Thy heart's desire shall be fulfilled. "Wait patiently for him."
The weary waiting times Are but the muffled peals, Low preluding celestial chimes, That hail his chariot wheels. Trust him to tune thy voice To blend with seraphim. His "Wait" shall issue in "Rejoice!" "Wait patiently for him."
He did not bid thee wait, Like drift-wood on the wave, For fickle chance or fixed fate To ruin or to save. Thine eyes shall surely see— No distant hope or dim— The Lord thy God arise for thee. "Wait patiently for him." -Frances R. Havergal.
