~The Cross He bore~
In the garden where roses once grew
Jesus knew
Why He came
bringing salvation
A Glorious King
A humble Babe’ in a manger
On a mission from God since His birth
To all who are lost
With the greatest sacrifice of all
A most precious Lamb would pay the price
Fashioned into
a crown of thorns
As great drops of blood came flowing down
As they were Placed upon our Savior’s head
A lonely tomb became His bed
Crimson red stained
the purple robes that Jesus wore
A dogwood fashioned into a cruel tree
Became the rugged Cross He bore for me
Nails were driven into his hands and his feet
As He carried the Cross through the street
His side was pierced with a sword
As the crowd they yelled, crucify Him!
Did they not know this was our Savior and Lord!?
In agony, He bled and died for you and for me
Like a prisoner, I have been forgiven
I am redeemed
I have been set free
That I might be healed, by the stripes He received
When He took my place at Calvary
The lame could walk
The blind could now see
The miracle at Cana
He healed Bartimaeus
There in the street
Lunch from the basket of a young lad
Fed a multitude
With 5 Loaves and 2 fishes was all that he had
The Leper was clean
Because he believed
For God so loved the world
Still some denied and said they knew Him not
The price He paid on that day
To save all of humanity
Oh this Precious Rose of Sharon
God’s Only begotten Son
How the angels must have cried
As all of heaven stood by
On that day when there was a hush….a silence
There was darkness as the sun stopped shining
When the Son of God was crucified!
Without sin
Subjected to shame
Upon a rugged tree
Because of His love He took the blame
We have the Promise
We have the hope
When On that third day
He arose
And He’s coming back once again!
Keep the faith and of courage------ be strong
Keep watching and waiting--------
For it won’t be long..
