One, Not Among Many

A singular, actually the one
God, creator, maker of heaven, of earth
One, not one among many
competing idols, focuses, priorities
One true God, jealous, awesome
whose story, whose power, whose love
must be known, shared
out into the world
for the kingdom will not wait
his time is coming
and none should remain
in the dark
