The scent on my fingers – v3


Something magic
the transformation
a simple meal
eating this sacrifice,
touching God

The scent on my fingers
the taste in my mouth
my risen Lord, Jesus
transforming the elements
Spirit of God

As near as his blessing
as far as the stars
in remembering that night
Christ yet with us
filling our hearts
