Kingdom of Patience
How perfect is your patience in the realm of trusting Him
Who patiently prepared Himself to walk and work with them
Who would be His disciples oh so many years ago
To open up the Word of God for all of them to know
The will and ways of heaven as the Kingdom among men
The kingdom of His heart and mind that He was always in
Beyond the things that they could see or substance they could feel
But truly just as substantive in spirit and as real
That Kingdom built of righteousness established before men
Were ever brought to being long before the birth of sin
Before the angels took their breath when formed by God's own hands
To wing throughout the universe fulfilling all His plans
That Kingdom that is waiting to this day for us to see
The beauty of salvation He's prepared for you and me
Where all our thoughts are answered from our questions in the past
When walking with our Saviour we will talk with Him at last
The way two friends conversing of the things that they can see
Express themselves in wonder with that full transparency
That has not one thing to be hid not one thing on their mind
For which they are embarrassed and would choose to leave behind
For in that perfect Kingdom that is here for us today
That Christ has said is in our hearts when we take time to pray
The atmosphere of heaven can be perfectly revealed
In those who patiently live out the Truth that is unsealed
Within the Book of heaven that we hold within our hands
That breathes the Spirit of His Truth revealing all His plans
For those who choose to listen as they hear His voice in prayer
Believing by the grace of God through faith He's always there
And holding to the promises He taught us long ago
Established in His Kingdom where the saved of earth will know
When walking up in heaven with their Saviour hand in hand
Were meant to teach us patience just the way that He had planned
That makes the Christian perfect in his battle over sin
The way it made Him perfect when He lived and walked with men
Until fulfilling all He came to do for you and me
God's Kingdom was revealed for us that day on Calvary
James 1:2-4; Luke 17:11-21
