Before the mountains
were brought forth,
you are God.
Before ever you had
formed the earth and the world,
you are God.
When a beautiful temple
dedicated to you is destroyed,
you are God.
When we grieve the loss
of a loved one who has died,
you are God.
When the fruit of the
land is our pride and glory,
you are God.
From everlasting to
everlasting,
you are God.

have no hope.

with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, [Jesus] said, "As
for these things that you see, the days will come when not one stone will be
left upon another; all will be thrown down."
