Now we cease our alleluias
and more thoughtfully rejoice,
that with human language muted
we might hear God’s softer voice.
Now we leave the shining mountain
in the company of friends,
whose encouragement we’ll treasure
as the path we take descends.
Now we study Christ’s temptations
in the wilderness alone
and trust, in the face of evil,
we’ll have answers of our own.
Now we set our faces forward,
following the steps of him
who with mindfulness and courage
journeys to Jerusalem.
