Sun Day

Birth again the sun,

may it crown the edge of the earth,

and spill glory and cast shadows

behind all it paints.

 

May we remember from where

this light bursts and fills

the land in golden revelation.

May we squint in gratefulness.

“God makes a huge dome

For the sun—a superdome!

The morning sun’s a new husband

Leaping from his honeymoon bed,

The daybreaking sun an athlete

Racing to the tape.

 

That’s how God’s Word vaults across the skies

From sunrise to sunset,

Melting ice, scorching deserts,

Warming hearts to faith.”

Psalm 19:4-6 The Message

    Beautiful imagery. I especially like the line, “The morning’s sun a new husband, Leaping from his honeymoon bed.”

      Eugene Peterson’s Translation of those verses reveal the mystery well. Thanks for stopping in Rose. Happy Monday. Blessings.
