Knowing
How can you truly love Someone you've never even seen
How can you want to go Somewhere you've never ever been
How can you say you serve Someone Whose presence you've not known
And do a work the Way He worked without you being shown
His Way as your Example that He once came here to give
So many many years ago before you ever lived
Before the world had video recording all He'd done
Who was God's Representative His all eternal Son
How can you think you live the Way He's wanting you to live
Without exact description written by His hand to give
You line by line instructions from the cradle to the grave
Uploaded on a hard drive someone else was there to save
You see it's not that simple all these claims that Christians make
These claims that have eternity with Jesus Christ at stake
These claims they say they act upon wherever they might be
That make one pause to wonder is that Christianity
That's often cross and critical and sometimes even frets
About the smallest issues or something that someone gets
That they thought ought to be their own that they had never earned
Nor had they poise and attitude the other person learned
By sitting with the Master every morning in their prayers
By reading from the scriptures just how much our Father cares
Not just once in their worship if they had worship at all
But every opportunity they had to hear God's call
And answer in obedience to His clear will for them
Revealed and intertwined within the written Word of Him
Inspired by His Spirit as He shared with men of old
Who wrote with perfect accuracy the things that they were told
So we by blood and water might receive what can't be seen
Except by living evidence just what the Spirit means
Should be our faith experience not just what we've been told
By others who assume they know the Truth they do not hold
So now while God is waiting to be One on one with you
Dig deep within His precious Word the Way He wants you to
And don't stop seeking Wisdom until you know deep inside
The perfect love and presence of God's Spirit as your Guide
John 14:1-17
