i bow to you, God omnipotent;
i reach for you, God omnipresent;
i look for you, God all-wise;
i hope for you, God all-good;
i sing for you, God creator;
i dance for you, unmoved mover.
i breath for you, ever-present;
i stop for you, eternal moment;
i rest on you, sure foundation;
i let go for you, i let go.
“I am powerful over you, bow;
I am present over you, reach;
I am considerate over you, look;
I am good over you, hope;
I am making over you, sing;
I am moving over you, dance;
I am present over you, breathe;
I am over you, cease;
I am confident in you, rest;
I am, my son, I am.”
the birds soaring, my soul in You.
the clouds moving and forming, my heart.
the blue is blue because of You,
and night arrives when You hide.
the greens, the life i have in You.
the reds, the works You have done.
the life around me and in me is You,
i am in You; we are one.
the stars, i know them as glimmers of You.
the sun, Your hope in my heart.
the twigs, the moments i break for You.
the seasons, my soul in Your art.
the questions, the mind i have for You.
the hurts, Your way in my way.
the branches, all that i stretch toward you.
am i not the world You have made?
“son, when i made the stars and the sun,
you were a thought in My mind.
when I touched the earth and caused it to grow
I pressed myself in your eyes.
when I set the clock to tick quiet joy
I wound your heart around Mine.
just try and you’ll find, low and high,
e’ry place riddled n’ rhythmed with life;
just whisper My name or shout—it’s the same,
for I am inside the dark and the light,
and if you forget, dearest, know I won’t chide;
no, beloved, I’ll never leave your side.”
