He He has sprinkled heav’ns with galaxies and filled the roaring seas Yet His voice is but a whisper in the cold December breeze He has rocked my inner being and caused earth to quake and shift But His touch is gentle as the softness of a morning mist He created chains of mountains, lifted water from the spring Yet His steps are light as butterfly’s translucent paper wing He’s more mighty and more potent than the mind could e’er perceive Yet He welcomes the most meek and fragile spirit to believe His magnificence is greater than the eye can ever know Yet his beauty is contained within an icy flake of snow And He radiates in glory as His Light spreads near and far Yet his grace is subtle as the twinkling of an evening star In the breezes of December, in the beads of dawning mist In the dainty wing of butterfly, God surely does exist In the stars that dot the heavens, in the January snows I can see God’s hand that made the wondrous gifts that He bestows His great power and his vastness reaches to infinity Yet he walks in steadfast silence here beside the likes of me Elizabeth Santos 11/24/03 |

this is so beautiful.. He is so amazing, isn't He?  This reminded me of the song "this fragile breath" by Todd Agnew, how he is so powerful yet tender... I love this... mind if I keep it in my library? 'cause I'm gonna! Always, Alyssa He was a man of sorrows |

Oh how on earth did I miss this? Yes he is all these things and more, and it is wonderful we have poets like you to put his deeds into the most beautiful words. Carpe' Diem |
