The Band of Brothers: MP3s/Lyrics

The Patient Man (lyrics)

(The Band of Brothers)
Michael Scott Smith
Note from Michael: Like "Evangeline", this song speaks on the virtue of patience. God knows, I need all the patience I can get.
Oh, the way - of the patient man - is on the road that never ends.

The horizon - is ever changing - but the patient man endures all the same.

Now, have you noticed in your travels, that the steadfast souls who stay the course,

Suffer opposition - yet find redemption, in the eye - eye - eyes of the Lord.

Oh, the way - of the patient man - is on the road that never ends.

The horizon - is ever changing - but the patient man endures all the same.

Now, I have wandered off the straight path. I sinned and lost my way.

And when adversity - had brought me to my knees - All I had to do was bow my head to pray.

Oh, the way - of the patient man - is on the road that never ends.

The horizon - is ever changing - but the patient man endures all the same.

Oh, my children, listen to me, and please heed the call from above.

It’s never too late - or too early, to walk in the path of God’s love.

Oh, the way - of the patient man - is on the road that never ends.

The horizon - is ever changing - but the patient man endures all the same.
