Thee Above All

Blessed art thou that believes, kneel before Thee
  Morn and night our eynes unfolded on Thee
Lest we stagger or plop by the wile trap
  To Thee we knock, drop the badger unwrapped

Creeds from thou embark, twitches of deeds shift
  Habitus from wails and torment we drift
Hands of stone we glorify images
  Images of beasts festoon above thy sages

Afore icons loss of might comes thy judgement
  Erelong nay beliefs or mooncalfs will lament
Betwixt good and evil crumpets disport
  Eke esurient gudgeons hence thirst and port

Orison, not purfles orts for prithee
  Maugre poshes, naught comes higher than Thee
