"O Lord, what fame Your name on earth receives...

From children's mouths a founded strength achieves..."

Within The Bible, God's Law is clear and images of wrath or judgement from the Almighty may come to mind. Yet, rooted in the center of it, beautiful messages-in the form of poetry and artful spiritual reflection-speak directly to one's emotions.


Dr. Christian Sidney Dickinson presents this unique collection of Psalm Sonnets-giving readers a taste of splendor within the Scriptures-and reintroducing Christians to this lost genre of devotional poetry from the 19th century. He returns the sonnets to a traditional form-with a classical meter and rhyme-and accompanies them with incredible artwork by illustrator, Dr. Byrd Roger, who thoughtfully brings the verses to life. These poems are also written for seekers. Those who are curious about God, but aren't interested in attending church, will find doctrinal truths of The Bible written for the soul.
