Prayer and Worship in Awe of God

Who can know the heart like You—

Its needs and wants, its pleasures small

Its grief and joy, its prayers—all

Is known and heard by You.

All will be answered, all made new.

Who can dream the dreams of God?

The breath of life within our souls;

The stars above, the fields below;

How justice touched by mercy’s rod

Can ransom sinners through His blood?

Who else deserves such trusting praise;

Whose image shines in every face;

Who gives the lonely each a place

And is the rest in troubling days,

The Promise kept in every age?

Who but You, and You alone;

Unsurpassable, not fully known

Yet stooping down to whisper close

Through wind and Spirit’s quiet voice

To draw the heart that is my own.
