My God II


My god is a god of sea and storm

And cloud-racked skies and tidal waves

A god of violence and wrath

The One who kills and killing saves.


My god is a god of the whirling dance

The planets follow his lightning feet

And stars and moons trip to his tunes

Majestic, passionate and sweet.


My god is a beautiful woman's smile,

All tenderness and sweetest love

And yet his masculinity

Upholds the earth, the realms above,


My god is a god of a hundred names

And all the worlds his field of play,

Whose presence dwells within each heart

And shall be visible one day.
