God infinite
as vast as we can imagine
that and then some
is the truth of God
We, on the other hand,
made of the earth
dust alone,
his breath gives us life
This dichotomy,
the nature of God and man
makes the gift of our sovereignty
hard to grasp, to understand
The creator of heaven and earth
mindful of you and me
caring about the hairs on our head
the number of our passing days
