I search'd for God in things of earthly mould; <br />I tried my best to search for Him ev'rywhere; <br />I sought him but found Him not; years had ro1l'd, <br />My heart told me, he must be somewhere near. <br /> <br />All life, I pray'd to Him in right earnest; <br />I called to Him to appear just but once! <br />I tried to seek Him ev'n when I did rest; <br />Where was He, the Almighty who weigh'd tonnes? <br /> <br />At last, I found Him in a child at play, <br />And on the road-side in a beggar's face; <br />He was the Good Samaritan en way, <br />I saw Him ’midst the blind persons in race. <br /> If God is Truth, He dwells amongst the poor, <br /> And in the hearts and minds kept pure for sure.<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sonnet-i-search-d-for-god-2/
