Jesus dies
Later, knowing that everything had
now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled,
Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” A jar of wine vinegar was there, so
they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the
hyssop plant, and lifted it to the lips of Jesus. When he had
received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he
bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
(John 19:28-30)
My senses
dissolve
Liquids pour over me
From the thorns, the wounds
Forgiveness is
opened with my wounds
I cry out,
spent and forlorn
Using the prophet’s words
For I have no more of my own
Why are we forsaken
Why am I
Are you?
I am alone
as it nears
I must be
Lord of wondrous
love,
What have you
given
That the hope of reconciliation
May be fulfilled?
And who are we
To receive the promise
Completed now in you?
In our shame,
Raise us up,
even with your wounded hands;
Bear us against your spear-pierced side
‘Til we may stand
Freed from the sin
You came to take.
Amen |
