(In the Crowd)
As so it was, as time went along
we would follow him, hear where he was going
always a multitude, a crowd
milling about, following him,
longing to see him
the Christ, serving, in ministry
walking the land, healing the sick
proclaiming God’s love
a different set of law
All of us, so hungry to hear him
following his message
coming to the seaside,
to the water’s edge
even as he comes ashore

Mark 3:7-12
