Everything in God (Vol 1 No 9)


God is the One in whom we all have life-giving purpose,

Spirit encompassing all and yet present within us;

Breath of each birth,

Source of all beauty and worth,

Found in us all, yet mysterious.


 

Have faith in virtue, have hope in great beauty abounding;

Hear words of love, and then listen for laughter resounding;

When, with delight,

We turn the darkness to light,

God, we discern, is surrounding.


 

Home in our world amidst wonder of life with its splendour;

Movement and colour show nature’s abundant agenda;

God is thus found

In air and sea, on the ground;

God is displayed by each gender.


 

Greet the creation, the magic of each constellation;

Stars without number and planets of unknown location

Whirling around,

Far beyond sight, sense and sound,

All share in God’s incarnation.


 

God is the One in whom we live and move and have being;

Spirit within as we ponder our faith and believing;

Here and elsewhere,

Past, present, future to share,

God, the beginning and ending.
