An Ode to Evolution



O mystic treasure hidden in the clay
Evolution of earth and the cosmic Christ at play
From creation, DNA and evolutionary process
The whole world sings praise to Christ who wore creation's crosses

Christ in all and all is his
The universe of evolution is the great hypostasis*
Matter can be a means to see God through Christ's eye
Spirit and energy collide while people still question why

The circles of life connects all too many to mention
Mystical descent turns and rises up to ascension
Bathed in light and God's creative action
Suffering and death leads to holy annihilation

Pain, suffering, and death are not the great evil
This evolutionary process is all a part of God's great triangle
Evolution and the divine milieu meet as divine communion
Matter and Spirit are made one with God in mystic union



*Hypostasis is the description of the process of Jesus humanity and Jesus divinity being united in the incarnation.
