Heavy indeed is the chalice lifted so high.
Heavy indeed is the chalice lifted so high.
The weight of supreme love, of sacrifice
presses down upon a human soul,
anointed for service,
called by love, sent outwards,
entrusted with the task of consecration.
Nothing prepares for this vocation.
No excellence in theology.
No being well versed in ancient philosophy.
Only a whispered sense.
One of sacred reverence.
Encapsulated in sacred duty.
Captured by fragile beauty,
one ever so unworthy.
Raising the chalice from the altar
grateful tears form, a desire to cry.
A tremble in the voice,
words seek the air of belief,
guided forth by the pangs of love,
for from the dry dust of the earth
your servant shall be lifted up,
for a microsecond, the dead weight of cross
bears down upon an expectation of holiness,
fear clouds the heart trained upon Christ alone,
a thought dawns that Christ will imminently die,
because heavy indeed is the chalice lifted so high.
