"Son...Rise"

A Poem by masqued_muse

This is another song,composed many years ago. It is about the death; and resurrection of a Son, as seen through the eyes of a Father....

            "I can hardly bear that kind of pain;
             upon Your weary brow,
            even though I know this evil deed
             must be done.
            I have been with You since Your life began;
             and I won't leave You, now.
            You're My crown, My glory,
             oh, Most Holy One.
            But; You know My eyes see deeper
             than human tongues can tell,
            and what I've seen,
             has torn my Heart apart.
            My creation is in chains,
             bound for a prison cell.
            You will be the Light
             that frees them from the dark.

            Son...rise. As sure as You were born,
             My Son, you're gonna rise again,
            come Resurrection Morn."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
            Now; somewhere up above;
             a Prince smiles at a King,
            and with Heaven's hosts,
             His children now can sing..

           "Son...rise. As sure as You were born,
             My Son, you're gonna rise again,
            come Resurrection Morn."

            Son...rise. And as sure as I was born,
             the Sun of Glory rose again,
            on Resurrection Morn...

Although from His mother the Son was born, the pain of living saw His Father torn and then the great hallelujah! I was singing your poem with my hearts choir! A beautiful, searing perspective, one I've never encountered before, thank you.
