Omnipotence.
As planets round the central sunIn 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.
