Knowing God

Since You, O God, know everything of me,
how much down here can I, Lord, know of You?
You’ve charted out to heaven our destiny,
and given us a book to guide us true.
You’ve left us with sufficient Revelation,
enough to know Your love and how to serve,
to know You in Your Son, His Incarnation,
Your Church He founded to our faith preserve.
There’s more in quiet prayer that’s so insightful,
when You converse with us with whispering voice,
and tell us of Yourself in ways delightful,
to know and love You better and rejoice.
O Spirit, I don’t have to fly to college,
to be inspired by all Your Godly knowledge.
