Picturing Christ
at the table
sitting with them
in the upper room
Sharing with them all
each one of them human
those who would betray,
deny him, and run away
Another image, only a day later
Christ on the cross
forgiving them all,
all who knew not what they did
Hope for us all
if forgiveness for them,
from the mouth of Christ
a gift for our souls
A future in glory
if we but believe
turning our lives over
to the will of our God
