Glorious
Christ,
You whose
divine influence is active at the very heart of matter.
And at the dazzling centre where the
innumerable fibres
of the multiple meet:
You whose
power is as implacable
as the world and as warm as life,
You whose
forehead is of the whiteness of snow.
Whose eyes are
of fire,
And whose feet
are brighter than molten gold;
You whose
hands imprison the stars;
You are the first and the last,
the
living and the dead and the risen again;
It is to you to whom our being
cries
out a desire as vast as the universe:
In truth you are our Lord and our
God. Amen.
(from The Mass on the
World)
