Who I Am

The only thing I know is who I am,
loved in God's mind before all time began,
destined forever to adore the Lamb
to mesh my precious freedom with God's plan.

I cannot help but feel so very small
for one who has so great a destiny,
and yet I seem to hear so clear a call,
else why would God be bothered making me?

All through His book He talks to me with care,
His passion aimed to save my wretched soul,
His lovely world made just for me to share,
His Church He formed to help me reach my goal.

O God, through all of this You've kindly smiled
on who I truly am, Your lucky child.
