Man's search for God
What a joke
As if we haven't been hiding out
Always trying to get away
From that terrible radiance
What drug won't we take
What idol won't we build
To conceal His face?
We were made to be with Him
Made for love
For eternity
And yet we can't bear to look at Him
Perhaps it is because of that glory
It reminds us how unclean we are
And our pride is irked
By it's own sinfulness
Or because our inheritance
Is unearned
Our dignity
Cannot accept such a gift
No
We are not searching for Him
It is He who searches us out
In His mercy and humility
