The Rhythm of Our Breath

May rhythm of our breath be Spirit filled
With Christ, begotten by the Father breathed
That Adam’s heart in us knows, “Peace, be still!”–
Receives inheritance through Christ bequeathed.

As Second Adam comes, makes all things new
With freshness of eternal Easter morn,
Redeems creation was in Eden skewed
By Adam’s choice when He was God’s First Born. 

We’re born again of Virgin, Second Eve,
Whose “yes” becomes our own in second birth–
Gives First Eve’s children life with full reprieve,
Restores for all creation Eden’s mirth.

We laugh with Sarah, now believes the truth
Of Triune Love, the Spirit’s final proof.
