I spoke to Zechariah – v3

I spoke to Zechariah,
a priest in the line of Aaron,
in the Holy of Holies
in the Temple in Jerusalem

I spoke a word of promise
I spoke to him of John
a child in his old age
a baby, the prophet

the one to baptize us
fulfilling the prophets
the ancient scripture
a voice crying out in the wilderness
to make a way straight

the one to prepare for the Lord;
but he did not believe
and I struck him silent
for doubting, for questioning
the very word of God
