THE MAJESTY OF GOD

by Betty Jo Mings

I cannot comprehend the awesome majesty of God,
Who fashioned the vast universe, and flung the stars in space;
A God who loved and chose me long before the earth was framed,
And proved His love by saving me, and dying in my place.

His greatness is unsearchable, beyond this finite mind,
And nothing in my knowledge can begin to understand
How He with His omniscience guides each stumbling step I take,
And with divine omnipotence holds fast my trembling hand.

How could the great Creator have such patience with this child;
To hold me in His arms, and save each tear that I have shed?
How could He know and care about each little thing I do,
And know my thoughts, and even count each hair upon my head?

To fathom such unbridled love is far beyond my ken,
And to all mortal minds it will remain a mystery.
I can but bow my head in humble gratitude and thanks,
That I will live some day with Him through all eternity.
