Hail HIM – “Great THOU art!”* KING reigns in my heart Brought me life’s breath start With grace, peace, joy’s part From hate and gloom’s dart. GOD saved my soul With blood-priced role Paid hell’s fire-pole For heav’n blest goal. He’s my LORD Grants firm Word Faith-braced sword. My Might Bright Light. CHRIST. *Psalm 48:1 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised… Diminished Hexaverse with rhyme.

I don't know whether you wrote the poem based on the scripture, but I think that your poem is a wonderful meditation on the scripture! Marvellous!

I echo Alexis' words, Beata. I don't suppose there are that many diminished Hexaverses in existence which praise God so fervently! Well done.
