the tent of the meeting
but profoundly different
the curtain wide open
God's love for all of us.
the altar pulled forward
out of the Holy of Holies
the Presence of God
available to all of us.
the golden cross
removed from the altar
the empty cross of Christ
the victory won.
down from the altar
a rainbow, living water
flowing down, over the stones,
washing our cares away.
the tent of the meeting
but profoundly different
God's love poured out
upon all of us.
