Before

“Before the mountains were brought forth,

or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world,

ever from everlasting to everlasting,

Thou art God.”  (Psalm 90:2)

The second verse is like a pipe organ with all of the

stops pulled out on the last phrase. I need the King James 

in order to capture His glory and majesty. He is God--

before creation, before the mountains were raised up.

He is still God in the present moment. From the beginning

to the end, from everlasting to everlasting, He is God!

Listen to the beat:

When life implodes:

“Thou art God!”

When fires, earthquakes, floods come:

“Thou art God!”

When nations rise against nations:

“Thou art God!”

When I wake in the morning:

“Thou art God!”

I revisit this verse when I read the newspaper,

when my flight is canceled, when I have a bad

Lyme day. Oh, dear reader, listen to the music--

“From everlasting to everlasting

Thou art God.”
