Amen. This is a powerful declaration of the eternal, universal truth that all of creation exists to proclaim the holiness and glory of its Creator. This cry reverberates from the smallest atom to the vastest galaxy, a constant symphony of worship.
This truth is proclaimed throughout Scripture:
"And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say, 'Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!'"
- Revelation 4:8 (ESV)
"The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork."
- Psalm 19:1 (ESV)
A Prayer Joining the Cry of Creation
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God Almighty,
We join our voices with the unending chorus of all creation. We add our praise to the song of the stars, the whisper of the wind, and the roar of the sea.
Open our ears to hear the world crying out "Holy!" in a thousand different tongues. Open our eyes to see Your glory displayed in the sunrise and the storm.
May our lives be a continuous, willing part of this universal worship. Let every breath we take, every word we speak, and every deed we do be a proclamation of Your holiness.
We join the eternal cry: Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord!
In Jesus' name, Amen.
A Poem: "All Creation Cries Holy"
"All Creation Cries Holy"
The rushing wind, a sacred choir,
The burning bush,a holy fire.
The crashing wave upon the sand,
Proclaims the work of God's own hand.
The mountain peak, so tall and grand,
The tiny grain of desert sand.
The eagle's flight,the lion's roar,
Are praises to the Evermore.
All creation cries, "Holy!"
In voices strong and lowly.
A symphony of endless praise,
Through all the nights and all the days.
The silent stars that fill the night,
Reflect His uncreated light.
The gentle rain,the mighty flood,
Declare the wonder of our God.
So let my voice now join the sound,
On this hallowed,holy ground.
With all that is,and is to be,
I cry,"Holy, Lord, to Thee!"
All creation cries, "Holy!"
The story of His glory.
And I will join with all my breath,
This song that conquers even death.
May your heart be tuned to this eternal frequency today. Wherever you go, remember that you are walking in a sanctuary of praise, and may your life be a beautiful, intentional part of the song that all creation is singing to its King.
