On the day He rose – v2

While they were still waiting
watching for the guards
fear gripping the disciples
hiding in the upper room
not sure where to go

On the day He rose
showing himself to them
those who had followed
who had answered His call
those hiding, in grief, in fear

He came to them in secret
not hindered by walls or doors
on the day He rose
He spoke peace to them
breathing the Spirit

On the day He rose
He gave them power
commissioning them to built the church
to be His hands and feet
to continue God’s work
