My Soul with Patience Waits by Nahum Tate and Brady, 1698 FRANCONIA—Johann B. Konig (arr. William Havergal) My Soul with Patience Waits 1 My Soul with patience waits For Thee, the living Lord: My hopes are on Thy promise built, Thy never-failing word. 2 My longing eyes look out For Thy enlivening ray, More duly than the morning watch To spy the dawning day. 3 Let Israel trust in God; No bounds his mercy knows; The plenteous source and spring from whence Eternal succor flows.
