When Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt. “Get up!” the angel said. “Take the child and his mother back to the land of Israel, because those who were trying to kill the child are dead.”

So Joseph got up and returned to the land of Israel with Jesus and his mother.
_{Matthew 2:19-21 NLT}

Removed by sin
Eden’s perfection is gone
torn presence brought pain
until the day
redemption arrived
new star in the sky.

Rerouted again
exiled
to foreign land
until all was secure
redemption returned
no one said a word.

Ripped
executed
tortured
under the cost
redemption for sin
no longer to win.

Rolled away
empty tomb
tell others quick
upended darkness
redemption is here
new life is the gift.

Remain, sweet ones
embraced by love
turning to truth
until the day comes
redemption sets straight
no more will we wait
For all to return
to its proper place.

And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment, so also Christ was offered once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again, not to deal with our sins, but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.
_{Hebrews 9:27-28 NLT}
