Where is He that evokes
Within night-deep, the dawn?
He strums the elements with rhapsodies
Of rain and sun
His betrothal of hope
Saves us from vile despair
Where demons flaunt death-desperate doubt
His whisper stills the air
Where is He that persuades
The bloom from soldered bark
Or hearts to trust Him and believe
That once were cold and dark
He succors day by day
Though dread and deceit taunt
Still He appeals on our behalf
To triumph our want
Where is He that implores
From Banquet Halls in wait
While grace in boundless Fathom pours
From Mercy’s unbarred Gate
Ah, we have seen His star
…glimpsed grandeur in belief
The earth His fullness testifies
In every new-born leaf
Where is this King of kings
That lives in hearts of men
Yet cups Time and its universe
Within Hope’s nail-scarred hands
Wonder and hunger vie
We marvel and beseech
He who transcends sod, sea and sky
Remains within our reach

"Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him." Matthew 2:2
Yes God is where He has always been; everywhere. How can we find Him? Ask and it will be given you. Seek and you shall find. Knock and it shall be opened unto you. Matt.7:7
