Classic Poem

Infinite outspreading. Eternal thought. Substance. In all parts He is whole — God. He is shining out of all the stars, from all eyes His light is shining, with all things He touches you, in every vein He lives through you. Every breath He breathes in, and breathes out every spoken word; He is with you in your every move, is living in every room of your house. In every joy He sings aloud with you, and weeps with you in every sorrow. And grows upwards with every blade of grass, and wilts with every leaf on the ground. Through all the rivers goes his song, through the deserts He storms with sand, and flames with every fire, hissing like a snake. And He roars by day through markets in towns, and trembles in every prayer in villages drowned in the night; screams aloud with every new born child, and stands at the bedstead of the dying man — He will Himself leave the world with him.
