Changing his ministry
no longer walking the land
purposely turning
going to Jerusalem
His time coming
when he would die for us
walking toward heaven
by the way of the cross

and the poem “Turning toward Jerusalem”,
written yesterday
———————–
Turning toward Jerusalem
Knowing the future
turning into the winds
the fate of the world
changed on that day
Christ deciding
resolutely going
turning toward Jerusalem
a servant to his fate
