The One I've Come To Know

"The One I’ve come to know

If every year without your wisdom

And every hour without your peace

And every moment of rejection

Was what I needed just to see

If every lie and broken promise

Every sin and virtue lost

If every moment without Your presence

                               Is what had to be the cost

If all my sufferings that I have suffered

And all the loss that came my way

And all the bitterness and envy

Was what it took to find today               

Then I will gladly take my portion

Of all it took for God to show

All the riches and the glory

Of the One I’ve come to know
