40
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I 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
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long...how long...how long
How long...to sing this song
He placed my feet upon a rock
And made my footsteps so firm
Many could see
M many could see and fear
I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song
How long to sing this song
How long to sing this song
How long, how long, how long, how long
To sing this song
