Ordained,
Ordered, In Order
Towards—What?
People,
Celebration,
Gathering
Praying
among, with and for,-
daily-
twice daily and in Eucharist
the Sacrifice of Praise and
Thank-filled Memories
made present
real and
Now.
To serve, to hold, to heal
to speak the Healing Words,
(-for all His Words are healing-)
of God in Christ.
To lead the merry
dance
to sing the merry
tune,
to laugh at him
who thinks to lead us
out from God
our home,
our hearts’ desire
fulfilled.
To laugh at Satan and
to jeer his wiles
and ways, as
now we stand
triumphant, laughingly
at the open tomb
just over from the Cross
of Victory
obedient.
Thank Christ. He has Ordained
that some should tell the Story
from the housetop, at a table,
where all is here again,
this place this time this One
among us,
saving us.
Ordained,- to tell the Mystery:
Ordained- to bring the reality
to where Christ ever is,
among His broken ones
his chosen ones,-
all people in the
likeness of His Father-
Ours-
Our God and His:
Ordained, that is,
to
Dance.
