~SONG FOR THE DAY

~ ~ ~

None of us knows and this makes it a mystery

If life is a comedy, then why all the tragedy?

Three-and-a-half pounds of brain try to figure out

What this world is all about

And is there an eternity, is there an eternity?

God if You're there I wish You'd show me

And God if You care then I need You to know me

I hope You don't mind me askin' the questions

But I figure You're big enough

I figure You're big enough

Lying on pillows we're haunted and half-awake

Does anyone hear us pray, "If I die before I wake"?

Then the morning comes and the mirror's another place

Where we wrestle face-to-face with the image of Deity

The image of Deity

God if You're there I wish You'd show me

And God if You care then I need You to know me

I hope You don't mind me askin' the questions

But I figure You're big enough

I figure You're big enough

When I imagine the size of the universe

And I wonder what's out past the edges

Then I discover inside me a space as big

And believe that I'm meant to be

Filled up with more than just questions

So, God if You're there I wish You'd show me

And God if You care then I need You to know me

I hope You don't mind me askin' the questions

But I figure You're big enough

I figure You're big enough
'Cause I am not big enough

*In this cover, the following stanza is tacked onto the end of the song--kind of kewl! ☺

Child I am here, in My Word I'll show you,

That I am the God who just wants to know you.

No, I don't mind that you're asking the questions,

'Cause I know you're not big enough,

I know you're not big enough.

'Cause I'm the One big enough.
