God our God,
Creator, Redeemer, Inspirer,
we trust your Mystery.
You are the end
before the beginning,
the flower
preceding seed
You are the fruit
before the tree,
the necessity
within our need.
You are the purpose
preceding patterns,
the pure Word
before all speech.
You are the meaning
between the lines,
the finding
before our seeking.
You are the past
we cannot leave,
the pre-life
that dies to live.
God our God,
Creator, Redeemer, Inspirer,
We adore your Mystery!
