patience

 
hold me tightly patience
with love for who I am within my soul
tenderly bring me up into your fate
inside the sacred halls I am whole
 
solemnly I look to you
you lift me up and I brim with hope
you've gathered my dreams and put them in a bouquet
gifting me visions to sustain me
 
sweet incense is my prayers
I scoured the heavens for your face
you were in front of me the whole time...surprising me
 
an artist with a vast imagination
starlit wonder in your gaze
I see your kingdom...it shines
a great captain leading us through the haze
 
did I forget to say you amaze me?
 
truth, hope and justice are with you standing as beacons
inside our vow I remain unshaken
no matter what I will stand true
 
if it is done to the least of these it has been done to me
I reach for a star knowing it holds my sacred name
I will be renewed come judgement day
so with purpose i walk into my future
