The Way God Graces

If I could choose the way God comes to me,
would I be me, would we not but trade places?
With God there are some things I just can't see,
just glad to play, I'll let Him hold the aces.

I know God knows the best way to appear,
the Hound of Heaven knows the one He chases,
He knows we can't know much while we are here,
in His own way He puts us through our paces.

Already He tells much in His creation,
and to make sure He touches all the bases,
He tells more of Himself in Revelation,
though He must watch how much faith He erases.

When I pray God let me escape my traces,
may I recall already all He graces.
