It Took So Long
by Benny Hester

Album: Legacy

I guess you think you have done quite well
It took so long, it took so long
Look in your eyes and I think you can tell
It took so long, it took so long
It took so long, it took so long, so long

I guess you think you have come quite far
It took so long, it took so long
I remember the day when I was where you are
It took so long, it took so long
It took so long, it took so long
So long, so long

And I don't know why
But it seems like I just
Tried to fool myself
And I don't know how
I rejected God's truth
When that did nothing it proved
But put me on the shelf
So filled with pride
Until the Lord came inside
Then I asked myself why
It took so long, so long

This change in me didn't come overnight
It took so long, it took so long
And I know you've been lookin' hard alright
It took so long, it took so long
It took so long, it took so long
So long, so long

I don't know why
But it seems like you're just
Tryin' to fool yourself
And I don't know how
You're rejecting God's truth
When that's done nothing for you
But put you on a shelf
So don't live this lie
Get up now and try
You'll ask yourself why
It took so long, so long

It took so long, it took so long
It took so long, it took so long, yeah
It took so long, took so long
It took so long, it took so long, so long

Yeah, it took so long
So long, so long, so long
