Noah was a truly patient man So God called him to build an ark And in the middle of the driest land Where faith just like dust blew apart Throughout so many years And through some dark despair Noah’s faith was building strong The hope and promise That the Lord had shared It gave him the strength to carry on
So no matter how dark this life may seem We can stand on His word with believing That He will never forsake us When there’s one thing we’re willing to do
Chorus You gotta be willing to wait on Him Just wait upon the Lord Put every bit of your faith in Him ‘Cause He’ll open heaven’s door You gotta be willing to wait on Him For His blessing He’ll reward If we don’t accelerate We can then celebrate If we can just wait Wait on the Lord
Even though the winds of life Blow swiftly by The pace of His grace we will feel And in our times of needed let’s realize That the hope in His word is so real
So no matter what life may have in store We will know that His will Is worth waiting for And He will never forsake us When there’s one thing we’re willing to do
Chorus
