Stripe by stripe
Rained on Your body.
Crown of thorns
Etched through Your skull.
Arms stretched out
Nails pierced
Through Your limbs.
Bones out of joint
Staring back at You.
Forgiveness You chose,
To those who mocked, scourged,
And tortured You.
Just for another breath,
Every ounce of strength mustered.
Driving through the nails again and again.
You spoke.
Sin forgiven.
Sinners received in Heaven.
Broken hearts comforted.
Families restored.
‘It is finished’ You said.
Your work at the cross completed
Once and for all.
You handed over Your spirit.
A beautiful exchange
Display for all to see.
Eternal salvation and righteousness
Freely given to all to receive.
What great love has descended!
The answer clearly known.
Can’t help but ask,
‘Am I really worth it?’
In your still soft voice Jesus, You said,
‘ I would still have chosen to go to the cross just for you. ’
