Almost All God

God made me to be now and put me here,
God breathed my self to be when He made me,
God sent my father and my mother dear,
God formed my soul so imperceptibly.

God gave me life and set me on a hill
to see but not to know His mystery,
God gave me power to do His or my will,
to exercise my choice, He made me free.

How little do I own and yet how much,
my knowledge is just what He lets me see,
I only touch the things He's made to touch,
and yet He's let me set my destiny.

Your contribution’s great, Lord, mine so small,
yet mine is all, and Yours just almost all.
