Free Faith

If God revealed Himself to me much more,
He'd kill the faith He wants so freely given;
if He showed me what I am destined for,
what would be left for me to merit heaven?
Much more of God would overpower me,
He measures just enough what I can take;
this world He limits to what I can see,
He does not show too much for my own sake.
My freedom would be gone if He told all,
without a struggle, there's no world to win;
without some doubt, why would I bide His call?
Temptation gone, there'd be no test to sin.
God, I must trust that You best call the shots,
I still can choose to love You lots and lots.
