40 Songtext / Lyric

I've waited patiently for the Lord
He inclined and heard my cry
He brought me up out of my pit
Out of the miry clay

I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song

(chorus)
How long to sing this song
How long to sing this song

He set my feet upon a rock
Made my footsteps firm
Many could see
Many could see and fear

I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song

(repeat chorus)
