God Sense

I don’t see God, and yet I know He’s there,
for with my eyes of faith I see Him clear,
I don’t hear God, yet know He hears my prayer,
and since He does, I know He’s really here.

I don’t touch God, but feel Him touching me,
my heart, my mind, my soul I feel Him shake,
He’s there surrounding me, though I’m still free,
free to withhold the love I feel Him take.

I find I ask myself, Who’s in control?
How can I not sense now this God I know?
Can I ignore Who captivates my soul?
Like Peter, I must ask, Where would I go?

O God, Your might draws me to thoughts above,
can I resist the power of Your love?
