He Saw Heaven Open
Coming up out of the water
out of the River Jordan
Heaven opened to him
He saw God descend
the spirit descend down upon him
The spirit like a dove,
alighting on him bodily
clothed with the spirit
covered by his robe, his care
marked, anointed for his servanthood
his healing of the rift
sealing the brokenness
God reaching down from heaven
to bless the son, before his journey
to the wilderness, to ministry
to the cross, and to glory
