There are
pretty packages in heaven
Filled with unanswered prayers
It doesn't
mean He did not listen
Or that He no longer cares.

For
when you give Him your problems
An answer you expect to receive
When
the answer does not come
You no longer want to believe.

You
give Him your requests and heartaches
Then you take them back
again
You don't wait for the answer
Before you take them to a
friend.

You
think that He won't help you
So being human you will not wait
My
friend, the answer was coming
It just hadn't left Heavens Gate.

For
on earth you have to learn patience
And not on others to depend
For
God has a beautiful package
He was just about to send.

It
takes time to pack it for you
To fit so perfectly
But if you remain
impatient
Your pretty package you'll never see.
