Easter 2018

From the moment his spirit came upon me I understood his sacrifice, his words that were to be His teachings I had heard I could now comprehend Though my story began before, let me start from the end From when his spirit came and tongues changed To his ascension after his final instruction And his promise of the unction to function Three times he asked ‘Simon do you love me’ Three times I said ‘I love you ‘with glee Three times he said ‘feed my sheep’ And before that was his resurrection The sacrifice that brought to all redemption A bridge to God to end all siege That makes all wrongs like water under a bridge And transforms our heart like Sam at hacksaw’s ridge A clean slate, a choice, a chance to start over To be free from guilt that always hovers Three days, he died, rose and restored me Three days to take the key that would set me free Three days was all it took. Happy easter!!!
