As he turns to her surprise
It's Jesus there the one she seeks
And tells her I've not ascended yet
Go tell the others I'll see them there
She goes and does what she was told
To his followers repeats what she should tell
And as foretold by Magdalena
Though doors are locked in wind arrives
All the band are there 'cept one
To see and marvel at his return
All to glimpse him face to face
And see the wounds on hand and feet
After he has left again
Though promises to again return
The lone disciple who was away
Returns to hear what others saw
Thomas the only one to miss
The sight of Jesus in their midst
Has his doubts and won't believe
Till he sticks fingers in his hands and side
Jesus returns again this time
And toes to Thomas right away
Come and put your finger here
Then put your other hand inside
You believe because you see
And you're blessed because of this
But blessed are those that do believe
Though they haven't seen as much
This wasn't the last time their Christ was seen
He walked among the band and throng
And before he was raised to his Father's house
Gave credo to his band of men
Go and do what I have done
Feed and heal the sick and poor
Whose ever sin you pray to loose
Will be lost as you request
But to all whose sins are great
And not of some repentant soul
Of their sins you wish to hold
Will be kept as you foretell
And with that sends his breath about
To show tongues of fire on their heads
Go out into the world and preach
The good news of your Living Lord
