Unto the Heavens

Steadfast love unto the heavens; faithfulness up to the clouds;

righteousness like mighty mountains; judgments with great depth endowed;

saving animals and people; that’s the way God moves around. 

—–

Sheltered by God’s wings of refuge; feasting on abundance there;

drinking of delightful rivers; finding light and life to spare;

This salvation is the joy of, all with whom God’s love is shared. 

—–

Doubly blessed are those who know the One whose love has formed the heart,

love that reaches past the sadness brought where malice played a part.

God, who loves and saves has welcomed, saint and sinner, monk and tart.
