Chris Rice - Naive lyrics

How long until You defend Your name and set the record right

And how far will You allow the human race to run and hide

And how much can You tolerate our weaknesses

Before You step into our sky blue and say “That’s quite enough!”

Am I naive to want a remedy for every bitter heart

Can I believe You hold an exclamation point for every question mark

And can I leave the timing of this universe in bigger hands

And may I be so bold to ask You to please hurry?

I hear that a God who’s good would never let the evil run so long

But I say it’s because You’re good You’re giving us more time, yeah

‘Cause I believe that You love to show us mercy

But when will You step into our sky blue and say “That’s quite enough,

And your time is up!”

Am I naive to want a remedy for every bitter heart

Can I believe You hold an exclamation point for every question mark

And can I leave the timing of this universe in bigger hands

And may I be so bold to ask You to please hurry?

Am I naive...

Can I believe...

And can I leave...in bigger hands

And may I be so bold to ask You

To ask You, to ask You

How long?
