The young man
unable to move
frozen, paralyzed
Needing Christ’s healing
that only he could offer
coming to him to be restored
His friends selfless, risking so much
climbing the building, the roof,
when the crowd would not move
Bringing him down
from the rooftop
to come before the living God
Their believe sufficient
their faith enough
to heal him utterly
Christ honoring their faith
the man redeemed
made whole
