Here’s a call to worship – or a
closing commission? – inspired by John’s vision in Revelation 5:6-14. It was posted by Wesley White on Kairos CoMotion Lectionary Dialogue.
Call to Worship
(inspired
by Revelation 5:6-14)
one angel is enough for Mary
Jesus had access to ten thousand
now myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands
are arrayed before our eyes
that many angels singing
in unison or four-part harmony
or lovely parts infinite in scope
deafen wisdom and worship
our work is done for us
all that is needed is assent
get on the bandwagon
forever might escape without unanimity
join the angel band
lend your voice
creation's wall will fall
only pure love will be left
