He Calls Us By Name

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The stars look all the same to me,

They glitter in the night.
The blossoms in the garden are
Identical by sight.
And, though our lives are different.
The hopes, the dreams, the shame,
Yet, I suspect that, from His throne,
We all look much the same.
 
And still He knows each one of us,
He calls us each by name.
 
For His love is much greater than
The little lives we lead
And His love sees us as unique,
Though we’re of common breed.
We are, each one, loved far beyond
The stars that light the sky
If He knows their names, how much more
Must He know you and I?
 
And still He knows each one of us,
He calls us each by name.

Psalm 147:4-5

He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.
