The chief priests, the scribes and the wise men
Knew and told Herod about Bethlehem
Having the Scriptures at their finger tips
they answered well when asked
about You
It’s not about head knowledge of You
You’re after our heart knowledge after all
A heart so tender longing for You
Not resting anywhere
but in You
*
She didn’t have head knowledge
of You
But she tasted Your forgiveness
So her heart would not rest
till she found You
And the moment You arose
You came to her
She did not even know Your Scriptures
In needless sorrow she grieved and wept for You
Ignoring the angels at the tomb
All she cared was to find
And to anoint You
She did not know much about Your teaching,
undoubtedly unaware that You’ll arise
Unabated even by angels
Ignoring their glory
In search of You
*
She didn’t have head knowledge
of You
But she tasted Your forgiveness
So her heart would not rest
till she found You
And the moment You arose
You came to her
A heart after You
A heart changed by You
Irrationally, she poured her worship on You
A heart after You
A heart touched by You
Forever loved by You
A heart after You
A heart changed by You
Tenderly because You have forgiven me
A heart after You
A heart touched by You
Forever loved by You
