Chris Caro - Patience

Yeah
Oh
Oh
Yeah
Oh
He told me that it's patience over performance
He told me that it's holiness before happiness
He told me have patience (woah)
He told me have patience yeah
He told me that it's patience over performance
He told me that it's holiness before happiness
He told me have patience (woah)
He told me have patience yeah
Lord
I'm beginning to walk
Need it be matching my talk
And I know it's happening fast
Cuz now you need me to jog
I know you need me be running
To have your kingdom advance
Be faithful in little things
Or else I might miss my chance
Like Israelites in the dessert
Who worshiped the golden calf
Disobedience plus grumbling
Well I'll let you do the math
It's a promise land you with wrath
Something I just can't bypass
An alliance comprises half
Is my compliance
Can't lack on my assignments no
Lord help me flow
As I'm going throughout this dessert
Perceiving it's getting better
Perseverance just a mirage
If lacking that sincere patience
And patience isn't just waiting
Faithfulness in this equation required
So don't retire like Moses
On the edge of promise kenosis
That leads to more than just proses
This is the process composing
All of my poems is life
So as I write this feeling like
This isn't me
Had my one eighty
Ever since been guiding me
He told me that it's patience over performance (Like exodus been set free)
He told me that it's holiness before happiness
He told me have patience (woah)
He told me have patience yeah
He told me that it's patience over performance
He told me that it's holiness before happiness
He told me have patience (woah)
He told me have patience yeah
Lord I'm becoming a son
Something that's never been done
Not because things I've said
Not because things that I've done
But it's because you told me be patient
Because my life in your hands
So now I let I let you work in me
Even when I don't understand
Patience inspite of my plans
Just when I think I can't do it
You pull me through it advance
Limitations crumble like sand
Imitation isn't impossible
But we must take a stance
When it comes to pride that's within us
Who tries to end us recant
But deception saying we cant
Lord help me grow
Because I know it's just the beginning
More suffering is my portion
No matter what the barrage
I'm chosen to bear your glory
What's glory without the cross
It hit me that Jesus rose
And You showed them all of your scars
No movie The Lion King
Came reconquered that pride rock
No movie could truly reveal the passion
And what it costs
To wear this mantle of humility
That's patience plus tax
But we're going to get that ROI
Because The King is coming back
Patience
He told me that it's patience over performance
He told me that it's holiness before happiness
He told me have patience (woah)
He told me have patience yeah
He told me that it's patience over performance
He told me that it's holiness before happiness
He told me have patience (woah)
He told me have patience yeah
Patience
Patience
Patience
Patience
Patience
Patience
Patience
Patience
God told me have patience (yeah)
It's not just the act of waiting (no oh no)
Faithfulness in this equation (oh)
Faithfulness in this equation (oh oh)
Jesus told me have patience
Still One Eighty
He told have patience yeah
It's CCARO
