On The Move

Mark 1:29-39

 

Like a monk in the Scriptorium

I sit to write the word

The Gospel that is spoken

Or written must be heard

 

Jesus in Capernaum

Now his cover’s blown

Spoke the word and healed the sick

They claim him for their own

 

But he has many miles to go

And promises to keep

The journey won’t be easy

The end will make you weep

 

I must go on the Lord explains

So many need to see

And hear the Gospel come alive

In the hills of Galilee

 

The word addressed to you today

Seeks a resting place

Admit the Lord and welcome him

And look to see his face
