Unveiled
“…the veil was torn in two…”
Luke 23:45
How can it be?
The Holy of Holies exposed; A crime unstyled!
Did they rush to repair the broken veil, beguiled?
An act so wrenchingly wrong, insolent, defiled
Who did this? Disrespect gone wild!
“We’ll die at the sight; it’s not ours to see this light.”
Enveloped in the old, the new is too bright
The heavens – dark at mid-day; the earth in a whirling sway
Could this act betray our sacred fray, such disarray?
Did He not say
“You know how to read the sky, why not read the signs of the day?”
The shock of their paradigm unveiled
A Glory beyond us assailed
An eternal undoing for our renewing?
How can it be?
“…when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.”
2 Cor. 3:16 ESV
