This prayer is actually a poem and describes God’s greatness.
The word “Adon,” meaning master, was first spoken by Abraham in the Bible, referring to God.
The lyrics speak about God’s greatness and all-empowering existence and include phrases from the book of Psalms, book of Job and other Jewish resources.
The first three stanzas speak of a transcendent Ruler who was there before our world ever existed, and who will rule in solitary grandeur long after our world is gone. But then the fourth and fifth stanzas go on to tell us most movingly of an immanent God who cares deeply about each one of us and to whom we turn in times of trouble and sorrow.
