Standing in the river
swirling around them
far more than water
the fate of all humankind
Standing in the river
hesitantly agreeing
baptizing our Savior
Love come to earth
Swirling around them
treachery and power
sin needing to be washed
away
with something stronger than
water
Repenting not enough
needing the cleansing
the healing he would provide
in fulfillment of his
ministry
