kneeling before Jesus – v5

a witness of salvation
of sight by faith
Jairus, the synagogue leader,
risking his reputation
kneeling before Jesus
calling him to heal her
to come to his daughter
dying in her bed

a witness of salvation
of sight by faith
risking his reputation
his position, his standing
but kneeling before Jesus
to heal his daughter’s illness
courageous submission
love over position
