You have risen

John 20 (NIV)
¹⁵ He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?
Who is it you are looking for?”

Yes Jesus
You have risen
from the tomb
You are not there
and I did not notice
Too long I have
waited here
in the dark
too afraid to move

But then
You came to me
Scarred hands reaching out
“I am not there,
I have risen”
Free at last from
my guilt
my shame
I can now be led
from death into life
