Almægtige SkaberAlmægtige Skaber, det er digder har formetlandet og havet...Verden kan ikke i sang,omend den var klar og ren og skøn,omend græsset og træerne sang,gribe alle dine undere du, sande Gud!Kelternes visdom er digte og tekster, hvori naturens kræfter skal vække en dybere indsigt om det guddommelige nærvær i hele skaber værket.
