Here is an excerpt that reflects the beauty contained within:

O Lord my God-

You who are mercy itself,
hidden from my eyes yet nearer to me than my own breath;
unchanging in Your eternity, yet ordering all things that change.

You are never young, never old,
ever working, yet eternally at rest;
the Creator of all, the Sustainer of all,
the perfection toward which all things long.

What do I possess that is not Your gift?
What can my tongue utter of You,
when even my words are borrowed from the breath You give?

And yet, O Lord, stoop down to me in Your compassion.
Permit me-dust and frailty though I am-
to speak to You, to praise You,
to whisper Your holy Name with trembling love.
