Your Splendor is too Bright for Me

Oh Yah, who made the sky and sea,

And everything, including me;

Oh mighty one, who reigns on high,

What need have you for such as I?

 

Your domain seems to be complete,

With your strength none can compete.

I see no lack in what you’ve done,

How can you need such a lowly one?

 

You’ve made worlds beyond my view,

Awesome is the word for you.

You listen to the prayers I pray,

Yet you’re so high, and I’m of clay.

 

Your throne-rights you have shared with me,

Oh mighty God, how can this be?

But I am thankful just the same,

And bend my knee to praise your name.
