"Numbers (God Of Patience)" lyrics
Sons Of Zion & Cheri B Lyrics
You brought us to the borderland
Where promise touched our feet
But fear rose like mountains
As it began to speak
Yet You called forth a remnant
Who would not bow to doubt
A Caleb heart, a different spirit
Who said, "The Lord will bring us out."
Faith, Testing, Inheritance
Give us faith to trust Your word
Even when the desert stings
Give us courage for the testing
And the strength Your Spirit brings
Raise Your witnesses among us
Those who stand when others tire
Make us heirs of holy promise
Marked by resurrection fire
Resurrection fire
The wilderness revealed us
The longing for what once enslaved
The murmuring, the ache and idols we must break
But You were patient with Your people
Forming sons through wandering years
Teaching us that trust is born
When we confront our hidden fears
Then You showed us a sign of mercy
A branch that bloomed in a single night
Life where death had always ruled
Your chosen marked by living light
Give us faith to trust Your word
Even when the desert stings
Give us courage for the testing
And the strength Your Spirit brings
Raise Your witnesses among us
Those who stand when others tire
Make us heirs of holy promise
Marked by resurrection fire
Resurrection fire
When venom struck our wandering hearts
You lifted healing from above
Not by striving, not by power
But by the look of faith and love
We raise our eyes to the One who heals
To the promise lifted high
For every curse is broken now
By the gaze that gives us life
You heard the cry for justice
From daughters bold and true
Who said, "Let us receive our portion
For the promise is for us too."
And You confirmed their rightful place
Their inheritance restored
Revealing that Your heart for us
Is generous, steadfast, sure
Give us faith to trust Your word
Even when the desert stings
Give us courage for the testing
And the strength Your Spirit brings
Call forth Calebs in this hour
Hearts that burn and never tire
Lead us into full inheritance
By Your resurrection fire
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will inherit everything You promised
Where promise touched our feet
But fear rose like mountains
As it began to speak
Yet You called forth a remnant
Who would not bow to doubt
A Caleb heart, a different spirit
Who said, "The Lord will bring us out."
Faith, Testing, Inheritance
Give us faith to trust Your word
Even when the desert stings
Give us courage for the testing
And the strength Your Spirit brings
Raise Your witnesses among us
Those who stand when others tire
Make us heirs of holy promise
Marked by resurrection fire
Resurrection fire
The wilderness revealed us
The longing for what once enslaved
The murmuring, the ache and idols we must break
But You were patient with Your people
Forming sons through wandering years
Teaching us that trust is born
When we confront our hidden fears
Then You showed us a sign of mercy
A branch that bloomed in a single night
Life where death had always ruled
Your chosen marked by living light
Give us faith to trust Your word
Even when the desert stings
Give us courage for the testing
And the strength Your Spirit brings
Raise Your witnesses among us
Those who stand when others tire
Make us heirs of holy promise
Marked by resurrection fire
Resurrection fire
When venom struck our wandering hearts
You lifted healing from above
Not by striving, not by power
But by the look of faith and love
We raise our eyes to the One who heals
To the promise lifted high
For every curse is broken now
By the gaze that gives us life

And You confirmed their rightful place

Revealing that Your heart for us
Is generous, steadfast, sure
Give us faith to trust Your word
Even when the desert stings
Give us courage for the testing
And the strength Your Spirit brings
Call forth Calebs in this hour
Hearts that burn and never tire
Lead us into full inheritance
By Your resurrection fire
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will not die in the wilderness
We will inherit everything You promised
