I behold Your sphere
Of iridescent liquid fire
Rising on the ocean's mirror finished horizon
Reaching out it's rays
To encompass
All my newborn morning
With it's shimmering, highlighting clasp
Including and even caressing me

I lift up my praise
To You
As I recall days before
When I didn't perceive Your Son
Until He made molten
My sin hardened, petrified core
And through His Holy Spirit
Quickened born again life
To shine forth
From the new heart of me.
