Poem: Psalm of Isaiah (inspired by Isaiah 40:31)

I decided to try something new. This poem is inspired by Isaiah 40:31 as well as some of my other favorite verses in Isaiah.

Psalm of Isaiah

We knowest, O Lord, thou art our Father.

Mount us, thy children, upon eagles’ wings

Ever to serve thee, thy praises to sing.

We are the clay, in the hands of the Potter.

Thou art a refuge from the raging storm;

The cooling shadow in the burning heat.

We are graven upon thy hands and feet,

Upon thy shoulders our sorrows are borne

Redeemer of All, Beginning and End,

Hold thou us fast in thy hand’s safe hollow

Set forth our feet on thy path to follow.

Thy soul was an offering; our souls to mend.

We knowest, O Lord, thou art our Father;

We are the clay, in the hands of the Potter.
