Relationship to God
O God, what’s my relationship to You?
You thought of me from all eternity,
and all this time, O Lord, You've loved me too,
You shared my lot to share Your lot with me.
With all these gifts, how have I used my lot?
Most for myself, I'm sad to say it's true,
so many ways I've sinned, a saint I'm not,
You died for me, while I've not lived for You.
Since You are God, I should bow low in prayer,
so steeped in pride, I should so humble be,
instead of self, I should give others care,
You live in them, just as You live in me.
Lord, though my mind be dark, my will so weak,
make stronger our relationship unique.
