ripped asunder – v2

torn, an open wound
ripped asunder
a gash opened
tearing the sky,
the heavens
for this holy cost
like the veil in the temple
the holy of holies
what would be ripped, torn
the God of creation
tearing the heavens
wide open
a vision of glory
in anointing our Savior
up from the waters
the Spirit meeting Him
at the water’s surface
blessing our Brother
sent out into the world
