Waiting

God oft gave beyond all expectation
More than heart had wished for to behold;
Should not this give us new inspiration
To await what His Word has foretold?

Ne'er a word of God was uttered vainly,
Although its fulfillment seemed afar;
Noble things take time, though promised plainly;
And the very best we find in God.
--Zion's Harp #244 vs. 6-7
