Well it'd have helped if I'd read the riddle correctly. I'd have put money down that the last two lines were:

You knew me for all your lives.
Now, know me not, and you shall die.

Seated high above the land,
I have a face; I have no hands.
Night might wax and day may wane:
Beneath me, no one walks unseen.
Ever at rest, but no rest for me,
I determine your destiny.
You knew me not for all your lives.
Now, know me not, and you shall die.

A sphinx?
