Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHIJ KLJMNHB OPQRSJ BTMHUV WXYZ AA2BMBMGG| The word of God | A |
| is not a captive of the pulpit s thunder | B |
| often it arrives unannounced | C |
| a quiet breath wandering | D |
| through the still corridors of the pews | E |
| - | |
| For truth is older than the preacher s voice | F |
| and wider than the walls that house it | G |
| It borrows the lips of the ordinary | H |
| and sometimes the trembling tongue | I |
| of those who never learned the language of sermons | J |
| - | |
| The word of Allah | K |
| does not sleep only in the sacred ink of the Koran | L |
| like the wind over deserts and oceans | J |
| it travels without passport or permission | M |
| resting in the counsel of a friend | N |
| in the warning of an enemy | H |
| in the strange wisdom of a passing stranger | B |
| - | |
| For the Divine Word | O |
| is not merely the music of comfort | P |
| Sometimes it is a storm over conscience | Q |
| sometimes a mirror before the soul | R |
| sometimes a blade of light | S |
| that tears the fabric of our cherished illusions | J |
| - | |
| Truth is a wanderer | B |
| It refuses captivity in temples | T |
| escapes the custody of doctrine | M |
| and laughs softly | H |
| at the arrogance of those | U |
| who claim to be its only messengers | V |
| - | |
| It appears where humility bends low enough to hear | W |
| and vanishes where pride builds thrones for itself | X |
| It rises in unlikely mouths | Y |
| and settles in unexpected hearts | Z |
| - | |
| For the word of God | A |
| is not a possession to guard | A2 |
| but a mystery to encounter | B |
| a living echo moving through creation | M |
| older than scripture | B |
| deeper than religion | M |
| and wider than every pulpit | G |
| that dares to contain it | G |
