Part of the picture

And the pain falls like a curtain
On the things I once called certain
And I have to say the words I fear the most
"I just don't know"

And the questions without answers
Come and paralyse the dancer
So I stand here on the stage afraid to move
Afraid to fall, oh, but fall I must
On this truth that my life has been formed from the dust

God is God, and I am not
I can only see a part of the picture He's painting
God is God and I am man
So I'll never understand it all
For only God is God

And the sky begins to thunder
And I'm filled with awe and wonder
Till the only burning question that remains
Is "Who am I?"

Can I form a single mountain
Take the stars in hand and count them
Can I even take a breath without God giving it to me
He is first and last before all that has been
Beyond all that will pass

-- "God is God" by Steven Curtis Chapman
