John Bowring

1792-1872 / England

Omnipotence

As planets round the central sun
In their eternal orbits shine,
So million lamps of light divine
Circle about The only One.
That only One-the first, the last,
Lord of the future,-present,-past,
He over all,-alone,-supreme,
The unseen,-the unapproachable,
Near whom all other lights are dim.
