Divine Contrasts
The Lord is far above us,
And yet He’s very near;
His glory fills the heavens
Yet makes our pathway clear.
The heavens can’t contain Him,
And yet He dwells within;
He needs no approbation
Yet loves the praise we bring.
His wisdom fills the ages,
Yet guides us as we pray;
He’s changelessly eternal
Yet cares for us each day.
He’s wholly self-sufficient
Yet reaches down in love;
He’s perfect, just, and holy
Yet welcomes us above.
