God, Our Refuge! Poem by Kuda Bondamakara

God, Our Refuge!

Rating: 5.0


Oh' God, our Rock in winds marauding;
Our strength in the times weary;
Our trust is under the shadow of Your wing
And You are our eternal refuge.

The cry of the oppressed, You don't ignore;
The prayer of the humble, You don't forget;
You are ready to forgive and abundant in mercy
How excellent is Your grace upon all men;

So precious is thy loving Kindness, Oh' God
My, mourning You have turned into, dancing
My sackcloth You have removed;
And clothed me with gladness in my heart.

The heavens are Yours, and everything in them
The earth and its fullness, You have founded them
The north and the south, You have created them
Strong is Thy hand, high is Thy right one

When I consider the seas and the oceans;
All being the work of Your artistry;
Even the sun and the moon and the stars;
I exalt Your name above every other.

Every living creature declares Your glory
The seraphs of the heavens, Your handiwork, they show.
Day unto day utters speech
And night unto night reveals knowledge.

Oh' God, our Rock in winds marauding;
Our strength in the times weary;
Our trust is under the shadow of Your wing
And You are our eternal refuge.
