Patient & Kind Songtext
von Jonathan Ogden

Lord you are patient and kind
Like winter, then summer in time
Thorns that were intertwined
Soon wither and unwind

Merciful, tender and mild
You help me remain like a child
Innocent, open-eyed
In wonder mystified

So I hold on to You
Magnificent One
Faithful and true

Father, You dance like the wind
Untethered You sing and You spin
Yours is a lofty love
A banner over us

And Lord You are patient and kind
A friend to the shamed and despised
Yours is a lowly love
To make Your home with us


So I hold on to You
Magnificent One
Faithful and True

Truth be told
It′s a heavy load
And it's more than I can take
When I try to bear the weight on my own

Once again
On You I do depend
From every lie that I believed
I know the truth will set my free in the end

All of my failures
And all of my shame
All my despair and my labour in vain
You laid them to rest when You walked out of the grave

One by one
All of my fears undone
By Your mercy and Your love
By the power of Your blood, I overcome


Faithful and true
You tore the veil in two
As far as east is from the west
All my failure, all my mess You removed

And now I can walk in the victory You′ve won
And now I can stand as a confident son
Holy and righteous because of what You've done

One by one, by one, by one
One by one, by one, by one
One by one, by one, by one
