Poem
O King so great and infinite Beyond what I could ever know You know my every word and thought My every move, where’er I go You never slumber, never sleep On me You always set your eyes Your hand protects and covers me When I lie down, when I arise O King beyond all time and space Enthroned so high above the earth From heaven, You look down on us And give the lowly hope and worth Your wonders take my breath away I always love to see and tell That You Who made the mighty mounts Have also formed each tiny cell O King Who does such wondrous works Who rules the rain and spreads the sea Who made all beauty, truth, and worth Within the womb, You fashioned me You gave me purpose, planned my years And knitted me with tender care You breathed in me the breath of life Before I took a breath of air O King so wise and powerful All things are subject unto You But yet, free-will You gave to me And let me choose what I shall do You force me not to take Your love You force me not my love to give I freely give You all my love My heart is Yours; in You I live O King Who made the galaxies The stars and worlds that have no end Oh, I am dust and ashes! Why Would You look down and call me friend? Your love, so deep and infinite You let me know, and taste, and see You gave Your life so I could live Such knowledge is too vast for me! O King beyond all earthly praise Who numbers all the stars and sands I read that You can not abide In dwellings made by human hands My hope, my everything, You are No words I write seem fit for Thee But since Your hands have formed my life Please come–You can abide in me
