Quiet Reflection and Communion
Selma Christ Global Methodist Church
Palms on the ground
Forgotten, trampled.
Reminder of triumphant praise
Swallowed in rejections chant,
CRUCIFY, CRUCIFY,
We reject this king.
Palms on the ground
Forgotten, forsaken.
Reminder of devotion’s praise
Swallowed in rebellion’s sin,
Actions, Attitudes
We rejected this king.
Palms on the ground
Remembered, burned.
Reminder of Wednesday’s return
Swallowed in repenting cry,
Forgive, Forgive,
We need this king.
Traditionally, Palm Sunday’s palms are gathered, dried, and burned. The ashes which remain are used during Ash Wednesday Services. However, we need not wait until Ash Wednesday to ask for and receive forgiveness from our gracious Savior and King. Receive communion today in an attitude of repentance and gratitude for all Jesus suffered so that we may have salvation.
