Eight
Eight
A meditation for Lent
Grieved your God
To his heart
In the Ark, eight
Through the water
To recreate
Called to the Lord
“Son of David
Have mercy”
Followed on the road
With sight restored
Hosanna, they sang
Rode the colt
Through the crowd
Eight days later
Resurrection
Did the renewed eyes
See the Passion?
A prophet on a cross.
Forsaken, body broken
God again in grief?
Through the water
Through the crowd
Eight, not just to live
But to renew
A ransom for many
Eight follows
After the rest
On the seventh day
God works again
Hosanna, our God saves
Based on Mark 10:46-11:11
