Doxology

A poem of praise from one of my favorite poets. Here is Doxology:

God fills my being to the brim

with floods of His immensity.

I drown within a drop of Him

whose sea-bed is infinity.

The Son is never far away from me

for presence is what love compels.

Divinely and incarnately

He draws me where His mercy dwells.

Praise to the Father and the Son

and to the Spirit! May I be,

O Water, Wave and Tide in One,

Thine animate doxology.

Powers, an Irish-American poet of some 400 poems, reminds us to raise our eyes—to see the One who is above the frenzy and give praise—which centers and calms the weary heart.
