Poetry: Under the stars

Leave behind the city lights
Come
Sit under a billion stars
Watch
A million galaxies spin above our heads

Under the stars we are small
Tiny people on a tiny planet
In our own little corner of this galaxy
And yet grace has come
Love has come
To us

Ancient constellations above our heads
Look
Solar systems become a speck
See
Shooting stars come falling down

How deep the universe
How deep his love for us
How far the stars
How far has he removed our sins from us
