Omnipresence

ELSIE A. KOEFOED

Lo! I am here and nigh,
Saith the Lord God!
Not seen with human eye,
But in the daily, hourly round
Of common tasks is My way found.
I know not days or earthborn years
Of mortals' bound—
With undimmed sense of endless life,
That knows no darkness, gloom, or strife,
My day appears.

Lo! I am here and nigh,
Saith the Lord God!
I hear their every cry,
And send My Word to heal, to bless,
To save men from their own distress.
I change not, neither do I see
With human eye.
In storm or cloud, in sun or shade,
I am expressed by man, I made
To reflect Me!
