God's Wisdom; Man's Folly
We will never fully understand
No matter how much we try,
God's ways are outside our realm,
Along with the reasons 'why'
We analyse and intellectualise
What we do not understand,
We need God's wisdom in our hearts,
Not the intellect of man
I know we have so many questions,
But the answers we seldom find,
For we can never work God out,
Nor understand His mind
There's no searching God's understanding,
So infinite are His ways
New are His mercies and steadfast love
At the dawn of each new day
So wonderful are all His counsels,
His wisdom's too great for me,
He understands the whole universe
And the hurt inside, He sees
I wonder how almighty God,
All knowing and divine,
How He could care about my world
And give undivided time
But this is the complexity
Of the holy, great 'I Am',
We often do not fully grasp
And we fail to understand
Just how much God really loves us,
Beyond what we can comprehend
For God is more than omnipotent,
He is our dearest friend.
