Ya Allah who can know of Your Glory and Might.
You turn night into day, You turn day into night.
Every motion and rest, every silence and word.
Is encompassed by You, is through Your power alone.

Oh my Lord who exists beyond beginnings or ends.
On Your will and Your power all existence depends.
Space and time You transcend, You are true unity.
You are greater than all mortal minds can conceive.

Every atom and seed, every mountain and tree.
All that dwells in the sky and the earth and the sea.
Every star in the heavens, the sun and the moon.
Without rest, without pause, we all glorify You.

Oh Lord of the worlds, full of mercy and grace.
Make me one of those who will see Your blessed face.
You refine me and guide me, make me pleasing to You.
Let me live, let me die in remembrance of You.
