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 usHe was tortured and stripped
Brutally beaten and whipped
Not only mocked and shamed
He was abandoned and betrayedHe had pleaded to God the Father
That this cup may pass from Him
But He knew the Heart of the Father
And completely obeyed HimNot His own will
But the Will of the Father be done
So that all of us will
Be saved and forgivenThus 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 usBut 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
