the Lord is a circle that can never be broken
He is infinite, pure and continuous
the world falters and sees disaster
darkness looms from the depths
the intricate organ suffers and pulls from the body
crumbling thoughts are left without hope
for their hope was not in the Lord, but in themselves
they build their security on the works of man
as their idol, they look to it for sustenance
they depend on it, though they deny it
they worship it, though they are ignorant of it
the sin of the world is the ultimate sin
they depend on the created, not the creator
they worship what is under their dominion
look to the Lord for your sustenance
worship the Lord and be glad
for even in the pit of your deepest despair
the sun will still rise by his hand
and fill your face with gladness.
