Kelli's Song

Lord, Your patience for me is astounding.

You have watched me attempt success,
You have watched me live through failure,
and patiently You waited.
You have watched me lie, and cheat, and steal;
You have heard me speak your name in vain,
and patiently You waited.
You have watched me stumble,
You have watched me fall,
and patiently You waited.
You have watched me cry out in agony,
You have watched me hide in shame,
and patiently You waited.

And when I chose to call out Your name, oh Lord,
You were already there.
When I lifted my voice in prayer, oh Lord,
You were already there.
When I asked for Your mercy, oh Lord,
It was already there.
When I opened my eyes I saw, oh Lord,
You were already there,
Waiting patiently for me to accept Your love.
