Faithful

Found a song with these lyrics.
I have found it to be so meaningful. Brought tears to my eyes.
Remembering the times that I just have to be patient and wait for God.

FAITHFUL
Brooke Fraser
From the secular album, Albertime


There’s distance in the air
And I cannot make it leave
I wave my arms ‘round about me
And blow with all my might

I cannot sense you close
Though I know you’re always here
But the comfort of you near
Is what I long for

When I can’t feel you
I have learned to reach out just the same
When I can’t hear you
I know you still hear every word I pray
And I want you
More than I want to live another day
And as I wait for you
Maybe I’m made more faithful

All the folly of the past
Though I know it is undone
I still feel the guilty one
Still trying to make it right

So I whisper soft your name
And let it roll around my tongue
Knowing you’re the only one who knows me
You know me

Show me how I should live this
Show me where I should walk
I count this world as loss to me
You are all I want
You are all I want

God, I want to have patience for You. I want to wait for Your timing, Your call.
I want to be more faithful.
I love You God.
