why do I matter

I join the psalmist, David,
this is beyond my comprehension
why the Creator of the universe
would care about me
why do I matter, to you, o God,
why do we have this love letter
written by your hand
How can I thank you
what can I give
this gift beyond measure
because of you, I am,
because of you, I live.
