Invisible God


Invisible God

Who hides thyself

In beggar and king

Sinner and seer,


Dressed in rags

Or royal robes,

Pariah and saint

Savant and sage,


Beaten beast

Immovable rock

Ephemeral,

Outlasting time


Untamed and meek,

Loud and brash

Singer and song,

The silent One,


The Infinite

Atomic vast

Who sleeps in stone

Awakes in leaf


Flower and tree,

Lights the suns

Kindles the stars

And grows in man.


O Beautiful

Impure outcast

Servant and Lord

I bow to Thee.
