The scent on my fingers – v5



Something magic
in the transformation
a simple meal of
bread and grape juice;
but eating this sacrifice,
touching the essence of God

The scent on my fingers
the taste in my mouth
my Risen Lord, Jesus
alive here with us;
transforming the elements
something greater, special,
through Spirit of God

As near as Christ’s blessing
as far as the stars
in remembering that night
when Christ became the sacrifice;
Christ yet with us
filling our hearts
