Eddie Murphy, Keith Robinson and Anika Noni Rose - Patience

Mmm, yeah, listen

I know you have questions
Same ones as me
How long has it been?
How long will it be?
When will come the morning
To drive the night away?
Tell me when will come the morning
Of a brighter day?

Yeah
Whoa, patience, little sister
Patience, little brother
Patience, patience, yeah
Take each other by the hand
Yeah, yeah

Whoa, patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Let us walk together, yeah
To the promised land, yeah

There's a river to cross
And a mountain to climb
Patience, patience, oh
It's gonna take some time, yeah, yeah, yes

We must walk in peace
We got to walk in peace
It's the only, only way
If we want to see that morning
Yeah (want to see that morning)
Of a brighter day
Of a brighter day, yeah

Patience, come on, little sister (little sister)
Patience, patience, little brother (little brother)
Patience, patience, yeah
We're gonna find a way
Patience, little sisters (little sisters)
Patience, patience, little brothers (little brothers)
Until that morning, yeah, of a brighter day, hey
Oh, patience, patience (patience)
'Til that brighter day, oh
Patience, patience
'Til that brighter day, yeah
Come on, come on, come on
Sing it patience, singin' patience, yeah
Gotta have some patience, patience
