Knowing That You Are is Enough for Me

All I know about You for sure

(Really, I know nothing more)

Is that You for certain are,

This being the greatest comfort by far.

Beyond this, what they say about You

I just can’t know if it’s really true.

The things about You they speak and write,

And over which they never cease to fight,

It might be lies or mere hearsay,

To verify which I have no way.

So, I don’t believe what they say.

To You I'll come in my own way.

About You, that You are is all I know.

I’m content with this, and truly so.

To some, meagre this might sound,

But for me, this is most profound.

Knowing this alone is for me bliss.

I don't need to know more than this.

Knowing that You are is all I need.

More than that's a great burden indeed.

Knowing that You are, with certainty,

Is, O God, enough for me.
