Mon 3/4Poem: The God Who is and is known

The God who is and is known
 
God in of Himself, uncreated glory
 
Chose to create everything to reveal His story
 
He is One in essence, unending and bright
 
The Eternal God who dwells in uncreated light
 
He who is One reveals Himself as Three
 
Father, Son, Holy Spirit - the Holy Trinity
 
The Father is God who loves
 
Eternal in His activity
 
He directs His love to the Son, Equal in Divinity
 
The Son is the Beloved, with the Father in perfect unity
 
He is the one who reveals the inaccessible Deity
 
The Father planned all things in the wonder of His will
 
with the Son agreeing to perform His work, the cross to fulfill
 
History was made by the Father and entered into by the Son
 
To finish in history what in eternity had been begun
 
The Father and The Son, united in perfection
 
The Father being light and the Son His reflection
 
For such Perfect Love to have been in constant activity
 
A Third Person had to be sharing in the union of Deity
 
The Holy Spirit is the love between the Father and the Son
 
Equal to the two, all three being One
 
The God who is, has revealed in His word
 
He has sent forth the truth to be spoken and heard
 
The Spirit opens the truth in the sacred scriptures
 
Come by faith to Jesus, the source of endless treasures
 
The Spirit's call proclaims the truth: salvation has been won
 
The barren cross and empty tomb, Christ's work has been done
 
The Gospel tells you plainly, make your heart His throne
 
Praise God Who is and Who desires to be known
