christ is the lord of the smallest atom

Christ is the Lord of the smallest atom
Christ is the Lord of outer space
Christ is the Lord of the constellations
Christ is the Lord of every place
Of the farthest star, of the coffee bar
Of the length of the Berlin wall
Of the village green, of the Asian scene
Christ is the Lord of all

Christ is the Lord of the human heart beat
Christ is the Lord of every breath
Christ is the Lord of man’s existence
Christ is the Lord of life and death
In the city store, by the surfing shore,
On the pitch with the bat and ball,
Where the people flee, of the refugee
Christ is the Lord of all

Christ is the Lord of our thoughts & feelings
Christ is the Lord of all we plan
Christ is the Lord of man’s decision
Christ is the Lord of total man
In the local street, where the people meet
In the church or the nearby hall
In the factory, in the family
Christ is the Lord of all

Christ is the Lord of our love and courtship
Christ is the Lord of man and wife
Christ is the Lord of the things we care for
Christ is the Lord of all our life
