Wait for it…

Oh rest in the Lord,
wait patiently for him
  and He shall give thee
  thy heart’s desires.
Commit thy way unto Him,
and trust in Him,
and fret not thyself because
  of evil-doers.
— Elias, Mendelssohn
Do not fret because of evil men
  or be envious of those who do wrong;
for like the grass they will soon wither,
  like green plants they will soon die away.

Trust in the LORD and do good;
  dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
Delight yourself in the LORD
  and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the LORD ;
  trust in him and he will do this:
He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
  the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;…
— beginning of Psalm 37, NIV
  
I waited for the Lord,
He inclined unto me,
He heard my complaint;
O blessed are they that hope
  and trust in the Lord.
— Hymn of Praise, Mendelssohn
I waited patiently for the LORD;
  he turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
  out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
  and gave me a firm place to stand.
He put a new song in my mouth,
  a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear
  and put their trust in the LORD .

Blessed is the man
  who makes the LORD his trust,…
— beginning of Psalm 40, NIV
