KINGDOM SPLAT--Ridderbos IV

Coming of the Kingdom
by Herman N. Ridderbos
(librarything entry; my scan results)

Kingdom has come,
dressed in servant's garb,
sowing and gathering,
delayed,
as the stores of fruit
increase.

Here, in the now,
suffering,
proclaiming,
waiting,
working,
knowing the sure end,
the Just Judge,
the Blessed One.
