The Ocean’s Master
(Job 38:10-12)
What on earth has the eye seen
That is more vast can sight can tell,
And mightier than the ocean’s fury,
With its every wave and swell?
Who measures the water’s limits
And sets boundaries for its place?
What one can fathom the size
Of its every occupied space?
What being can prevent its reach
And set against it bars and doors?
Who bids its proud waves stop,
Unfazed by the sea’s roars?
There can only be one answer,
Only one capable of such might;
That One is the same being
Who commands the day and night.
The One who stretches out the heavens,
Who teaches the dawn to know its place;
And commands the sun to reveal itself
And pour its rays on the earthen face.
This Master has unfathomable power ,
And commands all with His rod,
For He is the Creator of everything,
The one and only God.
I hope to post again soon about . . . well, you'll see what it is when I post it.
Signed,
Martha
