Analysis of The mystery of Godliness
God is not confined to a single place,
or restricted to any time or space.
The Almighty One is forever there.
Omnipresent, He is everywhere.
Before the beginning our God we see,
and after the end of time He will be.
He’s deeper than any depths that we can go
and higher than the heights we can know.
For our God is so mighty and diverse,
and beyond the reaches of the universe,
and yet He confined Himself to a span
and lived amongst us as a mortal Man.
