Go out into the Temple.

And tell the people all about this new life.

But is our faith and zeal ample.

Would we contend with any strife.

They arrested the apostles and had them put on gaol.

But at night the angel of the Lord opened the gate.

Of course we don’t have the same role.

Nor will we suffer the same martyr’s fate.

But I wish I had that courage and be that keen.

What amazing perseverance.

But then  I have only read not seen.

And can only hope for his reappearance.

So we struggle on.

Hoping for a new dawn.

…….

Into the Temple

They went to proclaim new life

And what do we do
