God Speaks

God speaks to us
in ways familiar,
in ways foreign;
He is never silent.

His voice is
the clap of thunder
the screech of hawk
the roar of waterfall;
His voice is
the flutter of wing
the gurgling of brook
the mew of kitten.

He speaks
worlds into being
lightning into striking
winds into blowing;
He speaks
sun into shining
plants into growing
cows into lowing.

His words
are the power
that create life
that summon death
that fill the heart
that sorrow the soul
that give
that take
that every season
wake
that every purpose
make.

God speaks to us.

Man can do naught
but listen
and bow down.
