From the Last Supper, Singing
This is the moment
Not hours from now
I sing with my comrades
The Spirit shows how.
I know what is pending
The Traitor's embrace.
But here we will sing
And here touch God's face.
The lessons have peaked, yes
Of Joy and of Prayer
Of Spirit's indwelling
To soothe every care.
The friends hardly see it
But time will improve.
Obedience is Power.
Obedience is Love.
Oh let them remember
I left with a smile.
And singing, full knowing
Reunion Above.
