As I Am Seen

What do the Heavens think of me When God looks down what does He see What things run through His mind and fill His heart Beholding one who once was there Now forging through a world of care And struggling everyday to find his part Is He proud of me, as His son All His affections have I won Or have I not lived in-step with His will I wish I had the simple means To see myself as I am seen And know if expectations are fulfilled But though I know not everything I know enough for reasoning That God doth always want the best for me Although I stammer and I fall And second guess and doubt and stall I know that my potential He doth see And thus I cannot help but feel I wish to me God would reveal His view from up above so very keen Then I would fully understand How precious to the Lord I am If I could only…see as I am seen
