“Washed,” read by Marcia N. Lynch.
Washed
by Marcia N. Lynch
He who gave Saturn rings to wear
Circled a towel around His waist,
Binding Himself to love and serve
This dusty human race.
Loving His own who were in the world,
He loved them to the end.
Washed and dried His betrayer’s feet,
Calls me to be His friend.
About the Poet
Marcia N. Lynch’s experience as a storyteller comes from working as a children’s film editor and from having been written into the story of Christ’s redemption. She studied sculpture at Mount Holyoke College. Sculpting, like film editing, requires an artist to cut out anything that does not relate to the primary subject matter, and these two disciplines have honed her storytelling skills. Marcia lives in Arlington, Virginia with her husband of 38 years and has three grown children. She surrendered to Christ in 1975.
