Apocrypha: Psalm 6 Poem by Gert Strydom

(after Totius)

When my Lord, I look up into the night sky
and I notice the Southern Cross above me,
where under Your omnipotence I stand insignificant,
I cannot understand the power that brought creation forth,
I see the starry-fields glistening glorious,
stars that jump and pulsars going to nought,
in Your wonderful dynamics everything is explicit,
it is as if I am looking into infinity,
and I notice the Southern Cross above me.
