MESSIAH HAS PASSED TO GLORY (POEM)

Posted on by

“This cannot just be right
His disciples stole him by night
He cannot eclipse our light
When we thought we’d won the fight”

These leaders did not know
The prophets said it’d be so
He’d suffer and die to show
To sin all men could say, “No!”

And risen from the dead
To God’s right hand exalted
He’s ensuring that we’re made
His people, o’er creation the head

Our endless “Hallelujahs”
Help us proclaim, “Alas,
Death, sin and loss will pass
Because Messiah to glory has!”
