Glorious
"You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honour and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.”
Revelation 4:11
Glorious
Moses quaked
In the presence
Of unadulterated goodness
As the Ancient of Days
Blazed before him
And knew his name.
Mary trembled,
A watchful mother
Cradling the glory of God
Holding the flesh and blood
Of the Eternal One
Entrusted to her.
The room fell silent
As the Lord of all
Knelt to wash
Dirty feet
Unashamedly
The servant of all.
And heaven resounded
As the battle scarred
Redeemer returned
Victorious
Triumphant
Glorious in love.
