God! You! Glory!
I thank you in my deepest guts,
echoed by the whole tribe of God!
Your magic amazes me,
confounds anyone who tries to understand.
Your miracles, brilliant and vast,
come from such tender, loving hands!
The universe shimmers with grace,
glows with your gentle mercy.
We are in awe: you feed us;
you are steadfastly thoughtful toward us.
We see your grace in all that you do,
mighty Creator, tender nursemaid.
Your love and justice sing through the world.
When we hear it we know how to dance.
The song is eternal.
To live is to sing it, sing it out loud,
with eyes closed.
The bound ones you set free;
the abandoned ones you marry.
This is your holiness,
what sets you apart.
(Wisdom is rooted in awestruck wonder,
overwhelmed by God.
Practice wonder,
and you will know what you need to know.)
Lovely One, the universe is your praise.
Infinite Beauty!
Infinite Glory!
