'Tis God Alone

'Tis God alone tells what life's all about,
who else knows really why we come and go?
Where we are from no one has figured out,
where we end up no one for sure can know.

In the great scheme of things, we're pretty small,
just who we truly are few know or care,
let's face it, we don't really count at all,
without God in our life, there's nothing there.

But God gave us our minds to reason to
how He created us and how we grow,
then He revealed to us what all is true,
and why He did--because He loves us so.

Since I can't take with me all that I own,
O God, let me most value You alone.
