The Divine Wisdom Poem by Liam ó Comáin

The Divine Wisdom



From the mystery of The Blessed Trinity
Loving and coming to save mankind:
God becoming man through a Virgin’s purity-
An exacting problem for the human mind!

For thirty years experiencing obscurity,
Preparing humbly for an oblation,
To free the souls of humanity
From the depths of sin and perdition.

Later preaching and working miracles,
Sowing virtue like springtime seed,
Endorsing the old laws ancient articles
And preaching love as the new laws creed.

In those three years building a body
Overseen by a man of the sea,
Then finally rejected as a nobody
He accepted death on a Calvary tree.

Beside two thieves slowly dying there,
Confirming death by an open heart,
Releasing streams of saving fayre
Which set his followers from others apart.

In another’s tomb they finally laid Him
But within a few days He arose again:
The conqueror of death and destructive sin
Who from within The Trinity now does reign.
