the tears of a sinner – v3

authentic witness
the calling of Matthew
the tax collector, a sinner
seating before Christ

rising from his bench
sitting at his table
collecting Rome’s taxes
knowing he was a sinner

Called by Christ, to come,
following the Shepherd
the tears of a sinner
knowing he was forgiven
