In Praise of God,
No mere words suffice.
Words sent on a breath of the heart
Up to heaven
Up to majesty and mercy
Up to our Father in heaven,
Words whispered with humble feeling
Reach his ear,
And his love is ours.
In praise of this great God,
No mere words suffice.
Not words only,
But thoughts, focus
Feelings, worries, heartaches,
Joys, gratitudes, empathies,
Services, sacrifices,
All the fight, fire, and mighty strength
Of the spirit.
In praise of God,
No mere words suffice,
But all heart, might, mind, and strength,
My very self.
This one made me want to read it again - and then again. I love your last lines of each stanza, especially the last "my very self." Your very self is so beautiful and pure and humble.
