SUNDAY MORNING GOING UP


The circle is closed
the last song sung
the final refrain echoes

“joy to the world,” or perhaps
“I love to tell the story.”
It is not easy now

to separate one page from another
The hymnal has been
soaked with water

and blood and tears
The words and notes
run together as one

unending hymn of hope

John Robert McFarland
