Thorns "Let this cup pass from me" Jesus said. "Not my will but yours be done" Jesus himself, praying to his father with humbleness For he knew what had to be done since the first day he was born His family loved him Mary his earthly mother Joseph his earthly father His disciples loved him so much Peter, denied this son of man three times Not knowing he would Jesus on the cross He knew my name Jesus on the cross, he took my shame Jesus on the cross, lifted my grief Jesus on the cross, died for my sins God forgive them for they know not what they do With every ounce of breath my Jesus had, he thought of you and me Kill Kim! Kill Him! Crucify Him! The people cried for they didn't know what they were saying Flesh ripped from the saviors back The crown of thorns bashed down on his head, painted a picture of this bloody son of the king One…Two…Three…Four… They scraped shrapnel across his back leaving gouges in the rough carpenter skin Mocking him Laughing at him It shames me that I know I would be doing that too Unrecognizable The pain indescribable His love kept himself on that cross on that cloudy Calvary day His mercy and hope kept Jesus on the cross Love, Mercy, Hope, and Forgiveness He shared in his hardest time How could anyone love me that way? How could anyone care for me that way? He took my sin away! Hallelujah! I can rejoice in Joy today On that Calvary day the soldiers threw his garments away, gambling at his feet "Truly this was the son of God" A soldier cried knowing what he had done Jesus forgave us for we knew not what we did. Thank you for being a friend for I know I don't deserve your love I know you'll be there for me through and through. Written By: Tiffany Langenes February 22, 2005 |
