Mere Mortals

How is it God that You deem us

Your children and holy

How can it be that You

Crown us with glory and honor

We are but mere mortals

Created beings of Your hand

Yet You deem us worthy

You put us in charge of Your earth

And gave us the authority of it

Who are we that we should be chosen

And yet here we are placed in charge

Helps us not to let the power go to our heads

But keep us humble as we oversee Your land

The intricacies of Your handiwork displayed

Help us to govern this place to Your glory
