Glorious is He: A Poem of Praise
Your existence is eternal
What a mind expanding thought
You were there at the beginning
Although time itself was not
You’re characters unchanging
You’re the standard of what’s right
With a righteousness that’s shining
Brighter than the morning light
Your sovereigntys unmatchable
Your purposes will stand
Whatsoever comes to pass
Is brought forth by your hand
You’re holy and transcendant
You’re distant yet so near
Our only proper attitude
Is reverential fear
Your wisdom is unsearchable
Your knowledge far too deep
You work all things together
For the good of all your sheep
Your mercy’s new each morning
Every day is full of grace
We see you through a darkened glass
But one day face to face
Your beauty’s ever present
In the work done by your hands
Your power and divinity
Is clear throughout the lands
Your plan’s often mysterious
Your sovereign plan so strange
But I know one day looking back
There’s nothing I would change
Your nature is a mystery
Holy triune three in one
You’re guiding all of history
Through Christ your only son
He’s the Word made flesh incarnate
Truly God and truly man
Who came to die for sinners
By God’s preappointed plan
He’s the shepherd of the sheep fold
Yet the lamb slain for our sin
He’s the door in which we walk through
As the Father draws us in
He’s the wisdom of the Father
And our righteousness alone
He’s the reason we come boldly
As Gods children to the throne
He’s the prophesied messiah
Suffering servant and our king
He’s the resurrected savior
Who came to take away deaths sting
If ever I should question
Gods unfailing love for me
I’ll forever look to Jesus
Oh how glorious is He
I hope this has shined some light!
Question for reflection: What part of Gods character do you love most and glorify Him for?
