We just don't get to see it when we're just going this get to see it when we're just going this get to see it when we're just going this direction of patience and waiting and direction of patience and waiting and direction of patience and waiting and waiting and the monotonous day-to-day waiting and the monotonous day-to-day waiting and the monotonous day-to-day that's hard.

  9. that's hard. that's hard. Every now and again, we'll see his Every now and again, we'll see his Every now and again, we'll see his justice. justice. justice. And in the process of waiting for it to And in the process of waiting for it to And in the process of waiting for it to come up or to come down, come up or to come down, come up or to come down, uh we just stay in this uh we just stay in this uh we just stay in this patience. patience. patience. >> [clears throat] >> [clears throat] >> [clears throat] >> And I think the encouraging thing is I >> And I think the encouraging thing is I >> And I think the encouraging thing is I can look back and see where his justice can look back and see where his justice can look back and see where his justice did happen. did happen. did happen. Like when I'm in that monotonous like Like when I'm in that monotonous like Like when I'm in that monotonous like any day now, any day now, any day now, maybe sometimes I should look back on maybe sometimes I should look back on maybe sometimes I should look back on the times when justice has happened to the times when justice has happened to the times when justice has happened to remember remember remember it'll come.
