Following Mary at the Tomb

I'm using this poem at Easter Service. It will have scripture and hymn inserted at different points.

 

Mary Weeps
            Who moved the stone?
            Who took his body?
            Where has it gone?
 
            Mary weeps,
            Empty is her heart
            As vacant as that cold tomb
            With a taste that was so tart.
           
            Mary weeps.
            What ever will she do
            When can she look for strength
            What can pull her through?
 
Mary bends over and looks
            All she knows is prayer.
            She bends in a humble posture
            As she had when he was there.
 
            Mary bends over and looks
            In sadness her eyes look down
            Many times she had smiles
            Today she wears a frown.
 
            Mary bends over and looks
            To see what God will say.
            She wants to find an answer
            So she takes the time to prayer.
Mary saw the angels
            God’s messengers to her
            They helped clear her vision
            Which had been a hazy blur.
 
            Mary saw the angels
            Who asked why she cried.
            She looked at them in wonder
            Asking why he’s not inside.
 
            Mary saw the angels
            But no answer came.
            She enter in great sorrow
            And she left the same.
 
Mary turned around
            And saw Jesus standing there
            But she didn’t recognize him
            And didn’t even stare
 
            Mary turned around
            When she heard him speak her name
            And then she was so happy
            For the answer that came.

That was a very special perspective about how Mary coped with the circumstances that Jesus had to go through for all of us. A real eye opener. Well done...

Have a Happy Resurrection Day!

Love and Blessings ion Christ,
