into our locked rooms – v3


No barrier for the risen one
the Christ, Jesus
no wall could stop him
free because he was Spirit
Christ entering in
the Spirit, the Savior
the love of God manifest
coming to each one of us
erstwhile disciples
into our locked room
Appearing to each of us
raised from the dead
peace for our souls
for our spirits
Christ stands with us
we who have run away
with us as he had promised
before his climbed the cross
and became our sacrifice
