They were disciples of the Christ

Lowly fishermen, the others
yet their lives had meaning
an identity holy, a purpose
they were disciples of the Christ
serving in his ministry

All of that shattered, vanished
without meaning, no purpose
waiting in the upper room
before Christ appeared
their joy to overflowing
