The Ascension of the Lord As they were looking on, Jesus was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight. Acts 1:9 And have the bright immensities received our Risen Lord, where light years frame the Pleiades and point Orion s sword: Do flaming suns His footsteps trace through corridors sublime, the Lord of interstellar space and conqueror of time? The heaven that hides Him from our sight knows neither near nor far; a little candle sheds its light as surely as a star. And where his loving people meet to share the gift divine, there stands He with unhurrying feet; there heavenly splendors shine. Howard C. Robbins Mediator between God and man, judge of the world and Lord of hosts, he ascended, not to distance himself from our lowly state but that we, his members, might be confident of following where he, our Head and Founder, has gone before. Mass for the Ascension of the Lord
