Father…Giver of all life,
Creator of all things;
By your Word…you spoke,
Spoke everything into being.

Whole universes were formed,
Everything that is seen;
And, even things unseen,
All fashioned by your Word.

Awesome…beyond human comprehension,
Our finite minds cannot contain;
The vastness of your doing,
To fathom it all…far beyond our domain.

From the greatest…to the smallest detail,
You began all things;
Set the universe into motion,
That you might bring it all back to you…again.

You are the Source of all living,
Without you…there is no life;
Truly…you are Love,
Without your Love…there is no life.

We look to you…Father,
For guidance every day;
Your will…your way…your timing,
We’re learning to rely on all you say.

Thank you, Father…for what you’ve birthed,
By your Spirit...deep within;
Thank you for Emmanuel…the Word made flesh,
Your atonement for all sin.

Amen.
