Smeltend-Skone Sitertone

Die weerkrag van my heil
by wilde waterweë en
hemelsfere in die
oneindigheid

Waar die nagtelike hemel
skyn met tint- en glans-
gewemel

U oordeel vol geheimenis
in u rykstroon ver bokant
die hemelboë - stygend in
wentelkringe

U strafgerigte dring soos skigte
wyl die smeltend-skone harp-
en sitertone liefd’en lof
verklank

Die Berymde Psalms en Evangeliese
Gesange, NG Kerk Uitgewers 1958

Aanhalings uit Psalms 8, 9, 18, 33, 38.
