In Your Perfect Time

Lord, You know me better than I know myself

And Your plans are greater than mine

No mind is wiser than Yours

No hands is mightier than Yours

No time is more perfect than Yours

This, I know, my Lord …

But, Lord, should I forget that You know me

And I keep complaining

And I keep on insisting

And I keep on pursuing

My plans rather than heeding Yours,

Forgive me Lord, for I am weak.

But with Your grace and strength, Lord

I stand

I walk

I abide

By Your plans, in Your honor, in Your perfect time!
