The Cross at Calvary

by Richard L. Provencher  
4/22/2012 / Worship

Light begins to sink
upon the night, redemption
pain and sadness await,
righteousness swept aside

they tormented Him, our Jesus
shamed Him, scourged
and defiled His kindness, the
Word designed for our salvation.

Lifting His head to the Father,
remembers on His knees
in Gethsemane, the kiss of Judas.
"Not my will but Yours," He intoned

then rising to His feet prepared
for the final journey of our salvation.
Now He represents the sins
of our existence and exchanges
His Divine life for ours.
