Behold the Light

Behold the light
The illumine of the sun 
of 
righteousness
The source of life and 
power of 
creation
That shines the day and 
outweigh the night 
darkness
With its beauty, stature 
and 
the essence of the 
maker

Behold it's beauty
Above the hill tops and 
in the 
shades of the mountain 
peaks
The beauty absorbed in 
streams below and in 
sprouting 
lilies
Spread on butterfly 
wings and 
floating with the falling 
feathers
The reflection of 
harmony and 
affinity of nature
the warmth of creation,  
the 
cosmic worship

Behold it's stature
A body of perfection and 
eternity,
Born not of a canal 
conception 
of sexuality,
clad in a vesture of the 
finest 
cloth of immortality
Standing on the land and 
on 
the sea
reaching to the heavens 
of 
timelessness 
Glowing with the glory 
and 
power of the maker

Behold the maker
The ancient of days of 
the 
utmost beauty, 
knowledge and 
goodness
The omnipotent one, 
without 
desire of want
A being self caused, of 
which 
the nature is only 
conceivable 
as existence
A mystery of our mental 
comprehension
full of all opulences 
divine and 
sublime 

Behold the light
Behold its beauty
Behold its stature
Behold its maker
