Waiting
Waiting keeps the time passing.
The waiting of the godly is worth it.
The waiting of the worldly is lucre lost.
The waiting of the godly is favor gained. The worldly fret over the gain of the worldly.
The godly is blessed even at his subconscious.
He recovers all that is stolen from him.
His swallowed riches shall be vomited. Legion is his afflictions;
He prevails over each one of them.
In the waiting period of twelve month and nine,
The timing hands passed with the least of our worry.
Recurring schedule shifts, a patience test We dealt evenly with.
We waited till we waited into the caring Healing hollow hands.
