My Journey to God

Psalm of Songs

The earth moves under my feet
     Not by an unmoved mover
          but this tremendous lover.
Skies blue with pearls
     and crown, cherubim
          timbrel and lyre, seraphim!
Wings lifted by the holy!
     Lord of all, heavenly King!
          Praise pied beauty, body and soul! Sing!
Open your hearts, welcome
     the lost who ask forgiveness.
          Peace, Honor, Glory! Darkness
is no more. Love
     liveth and abideth forever,
          in saecula saeculorum forever!
Though some are dead
     and some are living, the Almighty
          has never lost affection. See
how in our life the Lord has stopped and thought
     about us to say I love you more,
          I love you more!
