Great God and Me

Because You stand outside of time and history,
You are too far for us to really know;
and since You've built a universe of mystery,
our puny minds see only what You show.
Yet though You transcend everything in glory,
Your presence permeates what worlds there are;
Your Providence patrols each human story,
Your care controls from molecule to star.
O mighty God we know from Revelation,
O God of infinite power and majesty,
the beauty, good and truth of Your creation
point through Your Word to my true destiny.
Shall I reject Your love as I am free to?
How can I when You shower all this on me too?
