The Lord is my mighty Savior
for without Him there is no me.
At every rock and every brook
the Lord has made arrangements
to guarantee me a free pass.
He has trees to nourish me with fruits
He has fields to nourish me with grains
He is the shine on the sun to charge me
He is the calm on the moon to soothe me
He has taken pains to keep me at ease.
He has been my ageless and tireless friend
who has walked with me in countless forms
when I was young, wasn’t he my guardian?
when I aged, isn’t he thrilled to play my child?
He knows me much more than I know me.
If only we countless warriors abide
by the rules and laws He has laid
That is when He can rest and stand
the test of time and rebuke of others
who criticized Him for this creation.
A lot of his time is spent correcting me
me who, goes stray without a guide
He loves playing the shepherd role
He has to fight mighty battles with
my steadfast love that is His armor.
The Lord is my mighty savior
for nothing pleases Him than us
his loving creation in whom he prides
His loving grace with abundance glory
want us to practice faith and patience.
I love the way you don’t separate nature from your god – the way I read this poem is to see both aspects as parts of one whole…
