Dear God of the holy trinity
when in this morning light I see this day,
it can be like any other
or it can be the greatest one of all
depending on what I make of it,
as a being with free choice
and I do not need to explore the vast world,
nor do I have to dwell in scientific research
or bother with laws of mathematics
to know that You do exist, that by unknown,
incomprehensible power you have created the universe,
space and this planet called earth,
the sun, the sky and even man and much more than this:
that you love me and every other human being.

Where were you, where was I
when God created, set the globe
of this world in its place in the universe,
founding it to spin, to have night and day
setting seasons, years to exist?
Where were anybody when the sun the first time
devoured the darkness, when earth and ocean,
the blue sea parted to let dry land appear
and who can declare the knowledge
of the starting of life, who has the capacity
to bring it forth?
Where were we when angelic beings
saw all of these happenings,
sang together in joy,
before mere man
started living, as a rational being?
[References: Job 38:4-7.]

Glory be to God for beautiful things,
for all joy and love that live brings,
for skies on fire when the day dies,
for being part of the human race,
instead of being in another perfect place,
for giving man the capacity of own choice
than being just a creature searching for Your grace.
Glory be to God who comprehends
where men’s minds ends
and controls circumstances set
and when I do not understand
are of things are unaware
please do not stop Your loving care.

Your domain stretches from heaven to earth,
the universe
carries the signs of your own supreme will,
nothing perverse
is ever present in Your holy court,
respectful, terse,
mighty beings act in Your great presence,
as to all of life You are the essence;
intimately You do know each being,
notices mere man,
records and comprehends each word and deed
in a lifespan
and your grace and love reaches out boundless,
while you do plan
an end to all that is painful and impure,
in a kingdom that will endlessly endure.

Our God whose powers eternally does last
set His tracks in the midst of the worst storm,
His power supreme is present in the lightning’s blast,
daily all of nature does his miracles perform
many aeons are like mere days in His sight
while the whole firmament, the utter darkness,
sways before the purity of his holy light
as the same He remains endless
and whoever knows Him cannot deny that He exists
unfathomable His knowledge, presence and power is;
through all the ages, from begging of time, His love persists,
He is even there when couples meet in joy’s purest bliss,
in Him remains our hope and strength in time to come,
as our divine leader, the one who leads us home.

To God’s mysterious ways each day is
a great witness;
while the sun rises ruby red, is white,
it does caress
the earth with its warmth and with its bright rays
as God does bless
with rain at its time, He does envelope
the world in His hand, from beyond our scope.
Gert Strydom, 13 marca 2012
The pure ethereal sky, the darkness,
the blazing sun,
the blue-white stars and the great golden moon
might fade each one;
eternal does Your light shine from before
time had begun,
forever supreme reigns Your will divine
and yet Your great love, faith and hope are mine.

In never ending skill is manifest
God’s supreme will,
He plants the brightest flowers in the dale
and on the hill,
is present in my happiness and when
I feel quite ill,
in His love I have a firm confidence;
daily I experience His providence.
Gert Strydom, 12 marca 2012
How will I appear when before the Creator
I stand and He calls me forth
to bear testimony of His shattered world,
when every thought, every single deed
and everything that I have spoken,
have written, stand as evidence against me?
Will He look at me in all my transparency
and see the blood of His Son
or will every sin, every vile deed
bear witness of my severe iniquity?
Gert Strydom, 12 marca 2012
Daily I crucify Him while I dwell in sin,
while I stumble forth in life;
daily a new life for me He does begin
even when I fall down in strive
and from every sin, every iniquity
daily He sets me free.
