Big Enough

I think I've posted this before at some time.
I just love Chris Rice. He's the best.

Big Enough by Chris Rice

None of us knows, and this makes it a mystery
If life is a comedy, then why all the tragedy?
Three and a half pounds of brain try to figure out
What this world is all about and is there an eternity?
Is there an eternity?

God, if You're there, I wish you'd show me,
And, God, if You care, then I need You to know me
I hope You don't mind me asking the questions
But I figure you're big enough

Lying on pillows we're haunted and half-awake
Does anyone hear us pray
If I die before I wake?
Then the morning comes and the mirror's another place
Where we wrestle face to face
With the image of diety
The image of diety

God, if You're there, I wish You'd show me,
And, God, if you care, then I need You to know me
I hope You don't mind me asking the questions
But I figure You're big enough,
I figure You're big enough

When I imagine the size of the universe,
And I wonder what's out past the edges,
Then I discover inside me a space as big
And believe that I'm meant to be
Filled up with more than just questions

So God, if You're there, I wish You'd show me,
And, God, if You care, then I need You to know me
I hope You don't mind me asking the questions
But I
Figure You're big enough
I figure You're big enough
'Cause I am not big enough
