Heavenly Glories Unmatched

By seven stars, the heavens weave their thread
In sacred numbers, secrets are outspread
The One who speaks in fire and still, small voice  
Hath formed the world in sevens, by His choice

In threefold power, mysteries doth arise,
The trinity concealed in earth and skies
For three and one, the paths of light are shown
By twelve, the gates of heaven are made known

Twelve tribes, twelve stones, the pillars of the land
And twelve the stars that crowneth wisdom’s hand
By forty days, the flood doth cleanse the earth
By forty years, man wandereth from birth

In six, the labor of the world is spun
Yet on the seventh, rest and light begun
For twice six angels guard the throne of might
And seventy times seven cleanseth right

Tenfold the law, yet twofold hearts must keep
The narrow path, where wisdom doth not sleep
For he who seeketh in the numbered light  
Shall find the hidden gate within the night

By one, the Word, by four, the corners vast
By seven seals, the future doth hold fast
The numbers speak, though silent be their voice
In them the cosmos sings the Maker’s choice

O sacred count, O mysteries untold
In thee the ancient knowledge doth unfold
Through thee, we trace the paths to heaven’s door
And learn what lies beyond, forevermore
