That shook the building to its foundations.

They were prepared to give up all for his sake.

Without reservations.

Sometimes too with us all seems lost.

And then an earthquake happens.

We thought we could not count the cost.

Suddenly they seem true, all those sermons.

All the doors flew open.

And the chains fell from all the prisoners.

If only we knew it, our world is never broken.

As long as we remain listeners.

We will lose our chains.

And will find cleansed all our stains.

……..

An earthquake happens

And everything is changed

And unexpected

….  ..
