A man riding a red horse
at night in a hollow,
Stopped and stood among
white-flowering trees
growing there.
The Angel of the Lord.
Other horses, colored
red, sorrel and white,
Stood just behind, sent
to walk the earth
without fear.
Defenders of the Word.
The time for mercy
has come again.
A surveyor's string
is stretched out
across the land.
The Measure of His Rod.
His holy house
will be re-built.
He will once more
sit upon His
earthly throne.
The Comfort of God.
Zechariah 1:7-17
