No Place for Faith

There'd be no place for faith if we knew all,
we need some faith to face the mystery,
how can we see beyond the unknown wall?
No faith, we'd say no "Open sesame!"

Our ignorance precludes a faithless way,
no way we understand eternity,
we don't know how we get things when we pray,
we barely grasp our near reality.

God made us so we cannot know all things,
He wants a little of humility,
for if we knew of every song He sings,
then we would be as much like God as He.

O God, You rule that faith is our true test,
accept my humble faith for my true rest.
