standing on this little ball

I am thrust into the midst of glory

the heavens surround me

creation overwhelms me

and I am small

who am I that He should care

what is my name that He calls it

engraving it upon His hand

I am small and beneath contempt

yet in His eyes I have value

infinitely more than creation

I am worth His Son!

this little ball that carries me shall pass

these glorious skies shall fade

I, though small, am in His hand

I shall live!
