NOT so in haste, my heart!
Have faith in God and wait;
Although he seems to linger long,
He never comes too late.

Although he seems to linger long,
He never comes too late.
He never comes too late,
He knoweth what is best;
Vex not thyself—it is in vain;
Until he cometh, rest.

Nor grudge the hours that roll;
The feet that wait for God—'tis they
Are soonest at the, goal.

That is not gained by speed.
Then hold thee still, restless heart,
For I shall wait his lead.
