God Out There

When I say, "God's out there," what do I mean?
His there is further out than any there,
with nature's things He does not intervene
because He permeates them everywhere.

His big bang burst of light began Creation,
the stars spread outward at the speed of light,
His finger formed its first and firm foundation
that pushes back the infinite tide of night.

Why did He go to such great lengths to make
a world so soon corrupted by a man?
Yet in our fallen state He won't forsake
the ones who reach above His starry span.

God stretches far beyond our puny science
to show how much He is our soul reliance.
