They Took His Garments

One by one they took

His garments

But failed to take

What they’d really need

Dividing His coat and raiment--

Dark hearts engaged only

In a wicked, useless deed.

They should have taken His Word

As this was freely given

And with the Bread of Life

Begin to feed,

For it is only with this sacred seed

Planted firmly in tender,hungry hearts

Where Hope eternal can be received.

Based on John 19:23-24 , 1 Peter 1:23
