Ascension - a poem for the Day of Ascension

They saw you, Father, and they believed!
Excitement!
Their Saviour lived again, they were not deceived.
Belief!
They remembered, ancient prophesy had come to pass
Opened Minds!
They were the witnesses to the miracle of rebirth.
Breathless!
He was going to send them what His Father promised.
Curiosity!
They were to stay in the city until they had been clothed on high
Obedience!
He told them to follow Him to Bethany, a little ways away.
Follow!
He lifted up His hands to them and He blessed them.
Bless Me!
They saw Him leaving them, and taken up into Heaven
Bereft!
Close your eyes, Imagine, Worship, and Believe!
