The Cross

12/6/2017

Jesus went to the cross
Willingly to die for us
He suffered and endured the cross
To bring salvation and redemption to us

He was tortured and stripped
Brutally beaten and whipped
Not only mocked and shamed
He was abandoned and betrayed

He had pleaded to God the Father
That this cup may pass from Him
But He knew the Heart of the Father
And completely obeyed Him

Not His own will
But the Will of the Father be done
So that all of us will
Be saved and forgiven

Thus willingly He took our sins upon Him
And allowed the people to crucify Him
For not the nails that held Him to the cross
But His amazing Mercy,  Grace, and Love for us

But He did not just die for us
For the Father had raised Him back to life
So that through Jesus Christ, all of us
May receive His wonderful gift of eternal life
