FIREPLACE POETRY

When you hung on the cross

You already knew me by name

You knew I’d doubt you

Yet, still you remained.

When you hung on the cross

You knew my future and my past

Instead of condemning me

You showed grace that would last

My God, My God!

It’s the cross I don’t understand

You knew I’d be a sinner

So why reach out your hand?

You knew I’d mock you

You knew I’d turn away

So why do it?

Why stay?

You knew what you were doing

You knew I needed saved

You loved me enough to die

You loved me enough to borrow a grave

Through all the suffering

You knew it wasn’t the end

In 3 days you would RISE

In 3 days you would transcend!
