For just a moment today I thought – about the great and mighty cost -
The sacrifice for me you made – the day your heart and soul you gave -
Your word so honest and so true – I stand in awe of you -
When I look around this world you made – From the womb to the grave –
I see the bitterness of man – still I see the blueprint of your plan –
The beauty of the things you do – I stand in awe of you –
Your oceans and you mountains – the things that strike us all –
Beauty undefined by words – nature waiting for your call –
Your love for us is nothing new – I sand in awe of you.
Well, now that I got that off my chest let me just tell you my inspiration for that poem – It is the last three chapters of 3 John: 1 - 13-15 and it goes like this:
13 I had many things to write to you, but I am not willing to write them to you with pen and ink;
14 but I hope to see you shortly, and we will speak face to face.
15 Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.

I stand in awe of the fact that he knows my name.
I stand in awe of the fact that he evens knows me.
I stand in awe of the fact that not only does he know me – he loves me.
I stand in awe of the fact that of all the beautiful things he has created – we are his favorite creation.
I stand in awe of the fact that no matter how many times I crucify him – his blood ever runs red for me –
I stand in awe of the fact that every time I call his name – he is faithful to answer.
I stand in awe o the fact that he takes the time to suffer in my place daily.
I stand in awe of the fact that he is my friend.
Lord, I stand in awe of you.
Just in case you are going through a struggle and can’t seem to muster the joy to call on the name of Jesus – here are some other names you can try – HE WILL ANSWER TO ANY ONE OF THEM!
