A Poem...

I just read this poem and wanted to share it. It is taken out of The Old Testament and the Fine Arts by Cynthia Pearl Maus.

HERE'S A THOUGHT TO TUNE YOUR HARP TO

by William L. Stidger (from I Saw God Wash the World)

Here's a thought to tune your harp to,

Here's a song that you can sing;
Here's a dream to play your pipe to:

There is God in everything!

There is God in every dawning;

God in every noon and night;

God in every roll of thunder,

God in every flash of light.

There is God in every rose-bud,

God in grass, and grain, and tree;

God in every planet, wheeling

Through the dusky midnight sea.

There is God in song and laughter,

God in loving hope and dream;

God in every dear child's sweetness;

God in every silver stream.

God in growth and evolution,

God in history and hope;

God in dim and distant mornings

Where the poets dream and grope.

Here's a hope to tune your harp to,

Here's a bell to boom and ring;

Here's a faith that will requite you

There is God in everything!
