Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last (Luke 23:46; NIV).
I’m sinking into your hands, Lord God,
Then rising into your light:
No sun or moon, no pain or fear;
Your truth, alone, shines bright.
I’m sinking into your arms, Lord God,
Then rising into your peace,
Where healing and communion
For all will never cease.
I’m sinking into your heart, Lord God,
Then rising into your love:
Now we will live for evermore
As one, in heaven above.
We have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God (Hebrews 4:14; NLT).
