Be It unto Me According to Thy Word

In Jesus' words of moving mountains
we mistake the Lord
for Zion, Sinai or some local peak--
as if we could the Unmoved Mover move.

For as the heav'ns are higher than the earth
God's ways crest higher than our own.

Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
put behind them worldly ways
and like hind-footed Habakkuk
be made to walk upon high places?
(Zion, Sinai or some local peak)
