the Spirit descending – 2 – v3

the sky ripped wide open
eternity and the present
the Spirit descending
like a bird, like a dove.

the heavens rent opened
God’s Spirit falling
landing on Christ bodily
informing His life.

the Father speaking
from heaven, from His throne,
claiming Christ Jesus
as God’s begotten Son.
