IN HIS DIVINE BEAUTY

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (Gen 1:1)

In his beauty he created us all

In his beauty he gave us life

In his beauty he forgives our sins

In his beauty he gives us another chance to love him

In his beauty he purifies our soul

In his beauty he provides our daily bread

In his beauty he heals our land

In his beauty he takes care of the creatures of the earth

In his beauty he causes the sun to shine and the moon to glow

In his beauty the stars light up the night sky

In his beauty he gives us a home for an after-life

In his beauty he gave us his only son

In his beauty he allowed us spit on his son and he paid the price for our salvation

In his beauty he watched his son hang on a cross for us all

In his divine beauty we are still ungrateful

But still his beauty remains

And he leaves his arms open to us all
