Making Waves

Stirring the seas, making waves
crashing on the shoals, the Temple gates
up into the Sanhedrin, the council
These uneducated people, these fishermen
standing emboldened before them
unwavering in the truth, the power
the authority of Christ, the spirit within them
Making waves, telling truth to power
just what they feared they were
the seeds of their destruction
The truth to their heresy.
