on top of Calvary’s hill – v3


my focus this season, purpose
our walk in this Lent, this moment
to humbly walk beside Jesus
to journey to the places he went
to linger, to sit at his feet

Walking into the synagogues,
in the ways of Galilee
turning with him to Jerusalem
to face his destiny, his Passion
journeying at the pace of our Savior

his purposefulness my guide
slowing myself beside him
walking to the cross with Jesus
sensing, the fear, the dread
with the disciples by my side

There in the courts of the Lord
hearing the kangaroo court
on top of Calvary’s hill
as Christ was dying for my sin
that I may have life with him
