JERUSALEM IN THE MORNING. 

Have you seen Jerusalem in the Morning?
Where the sun rises stirring the hearts of the
 Protagonist
Like dogs in the Deserts,

Have you seen Bethlehem's stall?
Where there's no Star 'n' Straw at all,

Have you seen the Jordan?
Heard the Voice4,and seen the Dove,
 Descending.

Have you Climbed the Mountain,
And been in the Valley Trodden low.

Have you broke bread?
Only to see your Betrayer Come.

Have you felt the nails pierce?
A Carpenter's hands that healed.

Have you seen the Stone rolled away?
Knowing the Captives are free,

Have you met with your Master and Lord, Jesus?
The Christ,
Upon the Emmaus Road,
Then cast your Net wide,
Follow Him,
And Bring the Harvest in.
