By His Touch

By his touch
he was raised
by his mercy
her tears stopped
her sadness
turned to joy

God, in Christ below
healing her sorrow
the anguish of her loss
out of his love and goodness
her son was restored
raised from the dead
on the road to the grave
brought into wholeness
by the touch of his hand
