I`m Aware Of That


I`m aware that terrible storms will come

And destroy everything I have,

I`m aware of every sin I’ve committed,

I`m also aware that for each one confessed

God the almighty already forgave,

I`m aware that friends will turn on me someday,

And I’m aware of each and every word they will say,

There are also people who spit

When they see me walk down the street,

I`m aware of that too!

Some have so much hatred

They can`t even look me in the eye,

And every time they look at me

My presence makes them frown,

My parents may have not planned my arrival

But God did,

You see,

I`m aware of that too!

I`m aware that

I`m living a borrowed life

And if I waste it

God can always take it back

I`m aware of Adam and Eve

And the Garden of Eden

Of Abraham and his covenant with God,

Of Moses and the Ten Commandments,

Most of all,

I`m aware of Christ

The rising and setting of the sun,

The moon,

The twinkling of the stars,

And every time I look at these creations

I`m aware of God`s presence in my life.
