And in that silence brave they were and spat, and called Him names. A blindfold placed upon Him – they struck Him with their hands, “If you’re the Christ, who strikes you – Can’t you tell?” and through the street, they led Him, and mocked Him when He fell. The place of death they came at last the air was filled with sickening thuds as nails ripped into flesh and crucified they Him that day, The Prince of Peace – a lamb in death. The skies grew dark; the earth did quake, and curtain rend from top to base, with shoulders, hearts and spirits bowed, they lay Him in a guarded tomb and left to hide away and grieve. forget did they the promise given that three days hence would bring Messiah, Jesus, Saviour the resurrected King. Before the light; before the dawn with heart and soul near death did Mary come to weep, and what she saw – the empty tomb brought pain afresh and fear till voice so sweet and tender – the One she knew full well said but one word; her name He spoke to cause her heart to swell in rapture sweet with love and joy o’ flowed ran she to tell the others the glorious gladsome news Rejoice! Rejoice! Oh, hearts take flight let glad Hosannas ring, the Lord is living – risen No more can death defeat us, No more can sin hold sway Oh, sing my soul, rejoice and shout For now, He’s unbound Heaven’s gates the way to God made free, to live and love and walk with Him for now, my Saviour, Lord and King, is mine, for all eternity.

Keep writing. Joshua Janoski 24 Mar 2008 You really did a superb job of telling the whole story. Some only focus on the death, and others only on the resurrection. You focused on the entire sacrifice that Jesus made as well as the happy ending. Praise God that we are no longer dead...we are new creations in Christ. Connie Allen 21 Mar 2008 I LIKED THIS. We all know Jesus is alive, risen from the dead, but I think we also need to be reminded of the pain, suffering and sacrifice he went through to redeem us all. Looking at all that was happening at that time, I am sure the diciples, Mary and all the others felt it was all over, and for nothing. BUT GOD raised him from the grave so each of us could have him living inside us. GOD BLESS YOU...GOD's PLANS ARE BEST.
