Genesis 1:27
New Living Translation (NLT)
27 So God created human beings in his own image.
In the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
Up Above
Above our heads the heavens soar
While on the Earth our feet are bound,
By some mysterious cosmic force
The gravity is too profound,
Could stellar dust from ancient times
Carried on solar winds divine,
Have planted us down here below
By some intelligent design,
When we see all there is surrounding us
The vastness of the universe,
Then we think ourselves of little worth
Till our spirits tell the reverse,
Do not look upon this world with only your eyes
Or hear with nothing but your ears,
But view it all from the beating of your heart
And watch as the Love then appears,
This is not some colossal experiment
Forming out of some happenstance,
The Hand that formed and placed it
Did not leave it up to mere chance,
And more than all of the majestic wonders
That appear wherever you look,
Is the Peace that passes all understanding
By reading His wonderful Book
