creatures of God's decree
Roger:
It does work for me now, though still seems a tad abstruse ... how fair the decrees of the caller are.
I think he's simply saying: How fair are the creatures of God's decree" ... in reference to Day 6 of creation. Or else: "How fair are the objects of creation" or, better yet, "How fair are the creatures of God."
Whatever, the idea being put forward is wonderful, that our task as humans is to joyfully see and experience creation. If we look upon the earth and stars from that reverent and selfless point of view, our separateness dissolves and we literally become the eyes of God.
I am so incredibly moved by this amazing poem.
