At the tip of a Roman spear,
against the soft flesh
of Christ's heart;
Heaven was opened to Eve.
For she had scattered her children,
leaving them to die;
roaming the streets without a home.
The Son of God now gathers us,
a shepherd for the lost;
anyone who longs to have a home.
This is the word of The Lord,
that no one seeking shelter;
shall be found out in the rain.
It is the promise of our Father,
upon the lips of His beloved Son.
A child now rests,
Father;
her mother still feeds her,
and the mother of her mother.
It is enough for me,
to know that she is fed;
but if you bring her to me,
as is Your want,
bring to me my true desire.
One thorn is enough to cry out,
imagine then a crown;
and every wound of flesh,
The Passion of my longing heart.
