Tune: Repton
('Dear Lord and Father of mankind')
Psalm 62 v.5-8
********
My soul, wait you on God only
For He your help shall be
From Him is my expectation
He Lord, ruler o'er each nation
Of men of each station
Of men of each station
He only is my rock and my
Salvation, He is nigh
He is my defence, I shall not
Be moved or shaken, firm my lot
He has me not forgot
He has me not forgot
In God true is my salvation
And so unto each one
Who does upon Him call, they sahll
Know His presence, and all be well
And they His glories tell
And they His glories tell
He the rock of my strength, I stand
Sustained by His good hand* (*Spirit)
He my refuge, trust Him always
You people, pour out heart these days
To Him, so safe your ways
To Him, so safe your ways

I guess because I have a thing about always being early.. I sometimes struggle when kept waiting.. but and it is a big BUT ... for somethings it is wholly necessary and write....... Nice one too ................... Neville 🙂
Thanks Neville. On a human level, it's annoying if we've made the effort to be early or on time, and someone else has not, and just breezes in uncaringly with no apology for delays.
It's a sort of 'waiting in faith' here, or an 'active waiting'. The latter presumably meaning not dozing off or stuff like that, while waiting!
You waiting for that No.7 bus? Has it arrived yet?!
