“I go to the depths” I go to the depths of understanding. For the cries of wisdom have told me to declare understanding a kinsman. I go among the depths of darkness: I go to the depths of Love more than anything else. I go the depths of reproof, finding the sins that lead straight to death. I go to the depths of the poor. Becoming like them and poor as them. Where does it end, upon His love which is inexpressible by men. I go to the depths of God’s love through Christ Jesus our Lord. Is the sea deep enough, is a mother's love deep enough, a stranger's love? Of course not. Only the love of the living God. Would I find such love or be cast to the place of darkness and voiding of love, to hell. Praise him that at last I have found the depths of faith, hope and love.

I go to the depths
“I go to the depths” I go to the depths of understanding. For the cries of wisdom have told me to declare understanding a kinsman. I go among the depths of darkness: I go to the depths of Love more than anything else. I go the depths of reproof, finding the sins that lead straight to death. I go to the depths of the poor. Becoming like them and poor as them. Where does it end, upon His love which is inexpressible by men. I go to the depths of God’s love through Christ Jesus our Lord. Is the sea deep enough, is a mother's love deep enough, a stranger's love? Of course not. Only the love of the living God. Would I find such love or be cast to the place of darkness and voiding of love, to hell. Praise him that at last I have found the depths of faith, hope and love.
