The Great I Am

My name is engraved in every soul
Many mouths sing my praise, for I am longed for
Many hearts scorn my existence, for I am feared
Many lives have fallen for me, for I am tragedy
Many leap for joy in my presence, for I am hope
I am

I am everything, I am nothing
I am heaven, I am hell
I am the dew on every blade of grass,
I am the leap in every womb
I am the brightest leaves of autumn
I am the rolling waves of the crashing sea
I am the fallen tears of a child’s eyes.
I am

I am the words on every tongue
I am the dark seed of sorrow
I am the end of every fairy tale
I am the hinge of every question
I am the sharp arrow of vengeance.
I am

I am love, I am hate
I am the spring of every heart,
I am the winter of every soul
I am

I spoke the oceans and land into existence
I created day and night
I am the one who created good,
I am the one who fights evil
I am

I am the one who destroyed and rebuilt the temple in three days
I am the one who brought a man back from the dead
I am the one who made the lame leap and the dumb speak
I am

I am the Lion of Judah, I am the sacrificial lamb
I am the first, I am the last and besides me there is no other
I am the sword of David, I am the shield of Israel
I am the King of Kings, I am the Lord of Lords
I am the savior in bread in wine, I am three in one.
I am

I am the good shepherd, I am the true vine
I am the way, the truth and the light
I am the light of the world.
I am

I am called Allah, Yahweh and El Shaddai
I am known as Jehovah, Yeshoa and Emmanuel
I am Adonai, Elohim, and Kanna
I am all that there is.
I am

I am what I am
I am all that ever is and ever will be
I am the Great I Am.
I AM.
I AM.
I AM.
