You are the pre-dawn glow

that promises yet another new beginning;

You are the still dusk

that brings rest to a weary world;

 

You are the prophecy

of God’s life-giving Word inscribed on our hearts;

You are the law

that finds its fulfilment in love;

 

You are the mountain

where the presence of God blazes and burns;

You are the valley

where the face of God peeks out from suffering eyes;

 

You are the glory that we long for,

the whispered rumour of a different order,

the Shining One who transfigures all things.

 

You are the One we worship.

 

Amen.
