The Discovery of Knowing God
By Ken L. Birks
Intimately
acquainted with all our ways, You’re
forevermore. Knowing thoughts,
dreams, fears, sins, and more, You
restore. Wherever we go, nothing is
hidden, yet Your love remains. With
precious thoughts over us, they’re more
than numbered. Brought into
captivity, our thoughts remain
unencumbered.
May we
know You as You’ve known us, even in our
sin. With Your greatness beyond
discovery, we seek to begin. In Your
Word and creation, hidden keys reveal
Your majesty. With hidden treasures
discovered, we search with persistence.
With Intimacy revealed, we seek,
without resistance.
In seeking
and discovering, misconceptions
disappear. Teaching us, Your Holy
Spirit reveals Your nature, so near.
Meditating on Your beauty, majesty
reveals Your ascriptions. In Your
Word, we search out Your divine
distinctions. In Word and Spirit, we
go forth uncovering who You are.
In wonder
of Your creation, Your handiwork is
discovered. In beauty and
magnificence, Your creative zeal is
uncovered. By myriads of stars,
streams, mountains, and waterfalls, You
reveal. In beauty, and majesty,
You’re detected by all who’ve searched.
In discovery, You are seen and known in
all that You’ve created.
In
omniscience, You’ve known our future and
paths we take. Going before us as a
guiding light, You know what’s at stake.
Putting trust in You, we navigate
through dangers and setbacks. With
thoughts of peace, You give futures
filled with faith and hope. With more
discovered, Your excellence is revealed
for Your sake.
Incomprehensible, You alone are
inexhaustible in power and deeds. In
omnipotence, nothing is too difficult
with power that exceeds. Performing
and doing the hard things, You make our
part attainable. Not underestimating
Your power towards us, all things are
obtainable. In discovery and knowing
You, we remain linked to Your divine
ability.
In all
that You’ve created, Your eternal
Godhead is clearly portrayed.
Without excuse, we see the sun, moon and
stars clearly displayed. As energy
derived from the sun, so You are, having
life in Yourself. As the moon
reflects the sun’s glory, Your Son
reflects Your grandeur. As the Spirit
is everywhere, so are the stars in all
their splendor.
