What happened to holiness?

What happened to Holiness,
When Your name was too precious to utter?
What happened to greatness,
When You were bigger than our pride?
What happened to surrender,
When we left all to follow your Son?
What happened to trust,
When You knew better than our intellect?
What happened to death,
When we denied self, and picked up our cross?
What happened to life,
That was hidden entirely in You?
What happened to vision,
That saw past temporal into eternity?
What happened to the name “Christ,”
As we have paraded our flesh as your body?
Forgive us, Father,
And draw us back to You.
