The Chasm between Us

Not beside me
if truth were to be told
alone God would deny me
so base is my soul

The chasm between us
infinite God and mortal man
the stuff of clay,
dust of the earth

Yet Christ makes us worthy
a bridge to the creator
the finite made eternal
by the spirit and the cross

Joining us with God
in our walk upon this earth
in dying with Christ
we share in his rebirth

Rising to the heavens
brought into his courts
communing with our maker
at the end of our days
