He Ascended Into Heaven In White Clad


With His arms wide open and His head bowed low 
He prayed to His Father, without making a show

Two thieves at His side, one repented one not 
Savior of this world, gave it all He got 

They placed Him in a tomb and rolled up the stone 
all that was left of Him was flesh and bone 

"Mary, why do you cry? " He softly asked her  
she saw Him in full view & her heart began to stir 

He left His body and flew through the sky  
unrestrained, for He refused to die  

Yes He rose from the dead and for that we are glad,  
barefooted He ascended into heaven, in white clad.
