The Hem of the Robe – v6

Like shafts of light, living ribbon

captured by the hands of God

woven together, a fabric;

sheets of flowing luminous light

of holy cascading color

shimmering, alive, within itself

like a wall of falling water

a curtain of silent thundering rain

so must the hem of his robe have been

filling His Temple on earth

with smoke, with color, with living presence

flowing down from his heavenly throne

down from high above, alive

connecting us to the divine

Filling the temple with light

filling your temple with love
