GOD TAKES HIS TIME

Music by Chris Gardener
Words by Chris Gardener and Windy

Capo: 3rd fret

Chorus:
(G)God takes His time to make a tree,
A (D)baby so tiny or a bumble (G)bee.
He grows them slow so we can see
And (D)know the way we ought to (G)be.

The (B)farmer can't plant the (Em)seeds
And say, (C)"Come on and hurry up
And (G)grow in one (D)day!"
(B)He has to wait for the (Em)rain and sun
To (Am)help the plants grow (Bm)one by (D)one.

[Repeat chorus]

We (B)can't expect babies to (Em)get up and walk;
It (C)takes time to teach them to (G)read and to (D)talk.
(B)Show lots of patience in (Em)all that you do,
Re(Am)member you once were a (Bm)baby, (D)too.

[Repeat chorus]

So (B)don't be discouraged
When (Em)something goes slow,
(C)Though it is hard to (G)wait, I (D)know.
Re(B)member the plants
And the (Em)baby so small.
(Am)Take time to go slow,
You'll (Bm)grow big and (D)tall.

[Repeat chorus twice]

And (D)know the way we ought to (G)be.
God (D)takes His time with you and (G)me.
