The glories of that heavenly land I've oft times felt before And what I felt is but a taste That makes me long for more Had I the pinions of a dove I'd fly and be at rest I'd soar away to worlds above And dwell among the blessed. But stop says patience, wait awhile The crown's for those who fightt The price for those who run the race By faith and not by sight Then faith takes in the pleasing view Hope waits, love sits and sings Desire flutters to be gone But patience clips her wings. |
