Who Is Like You?

Who is like you?
Nobody I know is like you.
You sit up there and look down on shining stars,
Yet you watch over the sons of earth.
You keep the dust from settling quietly down,
Yet lift our heads so we don’t drown.

Who is like you?
Nobody I know is like you.
You forever stare down through
Shimmering skies to tend the fires that you started.
You send our soiled ash blowing wildly around,
Yet raise the dead, clean, from the ground.

Who is like you?
Nobody I know is like you.
You reign up there; no one’s above you.
You are so high, but send the rain to water lands,
To bless the mothers bowing, humble, down,
With crowned babies heads – Grace, coming down.

Who is like you?
Nobody I know, Lord,
Is like you.
