Invisible God


I give you praise, O Great Invisible God,
for the moon in the space of a dark night,
for the smile on a face in the sunlight.

I give you praise, O Great Invisible God,
for the sound of the storm on the window,
for the morning adorned with a new snow,
for the tears on the face of the old man
made clean by the grace of the good Lamb.

And oh, I long to see your face, Invisible God.
All the works that you have made are clearly seen
and plain as day, so mighty and tender.
O Lord, let me remember
that I see you everywhere, Invisible God,

your power eternal, your nature divine.
All creation tells the tale that Love is real and so alive.
I feel you, I hear you, Great God Unseen I see you

in the long, cold death that the winter brings
and the sweet resurrection spring.
Invisible God.
