Worth the Wait

I’ve wasted so much time,
Looking for the perfect guy.
I kept falling in infatuation,
But each time it was all a lie.

I’ve suffered much heartbreak,
As a result of the temporary.
I kept optimistically jumping in,
Hoping just once the results would vary.

But they never once did,
The end was always the same.
I ended up broken hearted,
More often than not, also ashamed.

When I step back, I realize,
I was looking for a man among boys.
I should have expected heart break.
For they treated my heart like their toys.

My biggest problem of all was this,
I was desperately searching for “love,”
But my priorities were terribly amiss,
I should’ve been pursuing God above.

It was only when I fell in love with Christ,
That he decided to bring you along.
I’ll love you yesterday and today,
Tomorrow, forever, all my life long.

It’s all so perfectly different this time.
You’re everything the others were not.
Everything is falling into place.
You are so much better than I ever thought.

To the one who’s feeling restless, 
Watching the time tick away.
Take it from me, don’t rush it!
Because God does not delay.

It may take some time and patience,
But God, he never runs late!
Just fall in love with the Father,
He’ll bring someone that’s worth the wait.
