a gaping hole – v2

Christ left His throne
a gaping hole in paradise
for thirty-three years
an eternity, it would seem,
while he walked the earth

part of God missing
from a seat in Glory
become mortal man
here on earth with us
emptied of power

in human flesh
walking with us fully human
God incarnate
loved poured down from heaven
a gaping hole above

filled when Christ ascended
returning in love
seated beside the Father
until He returns
in victory, in Glory
