What are we that you are mindful

What are we that you are mindful
of each thought and of our frame;
insignificant and worldly,
yet you call us each by name?

Everyday is like a thousand
in your sight and in your mind,
yet in time you came among us,
love and grace were fully signed.

Now we wait the confirmation
that we hope for through your grace,
day of joy, not consternation,
this we seek for all our race.

Verse 4 follows

Tune: LAUS DEO ( Redhead)

Andrew Pratt (born 1948)
