God and I

To Know

To know He knew me
Before I was
Mapped out each
Road I will eventually travel
Planned it all well
How I would end

To know He loved me
From the very first moment
He will love still
For He has known end
I will end
Fade into a memory
Buried with grandchildren
A lineage that ends
In hundreds of years to come

To wonder why then
Am I here
If it is all in vain
What is the point of labour
When the fruits will whither
And in time
I am as though I never was.
To know that He who lives forever
Will always remember me
As He did before I was
As He does now that I am
Makes it worth the while
