Wonder About This

I heard these lyrics by Steven Curtis Chapman a few days ago, and they have been rolling around in my head since then.
I wish I could live each moment in the realization of who God is and the preeminence of Christ.
That trite saying isn't so trite after all. It is truly not about me.

The sky begins to thunder,
And I’m filled with awe and wonder
‘Til the only burning question that remains
Is, "Who am I?"

Can I form a single mountain,
Take the stars in hand and count them,
Can I even take a breath without God giving it to me?
He is first and last, before all that has been,
Beyond all that will pass.

God is God and I am not.
I can only see a part of the picture He’s painting.
God is God and I am man,
So I’ll never understand it all,
For only God is God.

Oh, how great are the riches of His wisdom and knowledge!
How unsearchable, for to Him and through Him and from Him are all things!
