You Do Not Know

"You Do Not Know"

I know you do not know me;

You probably never will.

I'm the voice you hear around you

That tells you not to kill.

I know you do not know me;

But will you even try?

I'm the soul that is inside you

That shows you how to cry.

I know you do not know me;

But do you know my rival?

He hates and tries to kill you,

He threatens your survival.

I know you do not know me;

But do you wish you did?

I could have helped to calm you,

When you got scared and hid.

I know you do not know me;

I know you do not care.

But, oh, I wish you did!

There's do much I want to share.

I know you do not know me,

But long ago you did.

I sent my child to fight for you

And on a cross He bled.

I know you do not know me;

You haven't even tried.

You turned my servants from your home.

For years and years I've cried.

I know you do not know me.

Now you are old and gray.

Will you listen to me now?

Will you hear now what I say?

"Behold, this is My Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; Hear HIM."
