Baptized by the Holy Spirit – part 1

Christ’s promise
of what would soon come
unable to be fulfilled
while he walked the earth

Only by ascending
on that blessed day
only in reflection
could we with joy say

He rose from the earth
into the arms of the Lord
redeemed from his feet of clay
to walk once more with God

Preparing a place for us
an advocate for us
intervening on our behalf
preparing a way for us
