The Awesome Thoughts of God

Too deep for me to fathom are the awesome thoughts of God;
Too far above my feeble mind is the lofty Way He trods;
Too complex is His creation for the finite mind of man —
He's the Master of Creation and He made the Master Plan.

He's the One who drew the blueprint for this universe we know,
And He put each tiny particle in the place it ought to go.
He knows the end from its beginning and all that's in between;
He knows all that will ever come to pass and all that's ever been.

Yes, too deep for me to fathom are the awesome thoughts of God;
Too far above my feeble mind is the lofty Way He trods,
But He's told me all I need to know in the pages of His Book
About this world that He's created, if I but take the time to look.

He's told me of His love for man and the origin of sin
And of His great Salvation Plan to bring man back to Him.
He's told me of His precious Son who left His home above
To die on a cross to pay sin's debt, because of His great love.

He's told me He's prepared a place that I may dwell with Him,
A mansion built by the Lord Himself who died to conquer sin,
And that I will live forever more because in Jesus Christ I trust;
That my spirit will go to be with Him though this body turns to dust.

Yes, too deep for me to fathom are the awesome thoughts of God;
Too far above my feeble mind is the lofty Way He trods.
Of everything that happens He's in complete control,
So I'll put my trust in His dear Son who died to make me whole.
