Gospel
The sinless Lamb of God
Bore our sins upon His body
The Father’s wrath was poured out
Upon His innocent Son
“Father, forgive them for they know not what they do”
Beseeched from the Holy One whom they had rejected
Mocked when He proclaimed that He was King of the Jews
Yet He is the King of kings and Lord of lords
The ones He had healed
Stood before the cross condemning their Healer
Those whose sight was restored
Were blinded to the Savior before them
Those who could hear after Jesus’ miraculous touch
Were deaf to the Word of God
Those whose tongues were loosed
Were now crying “Crucify Him”
Those who sat on the hillside listening to the Sermon on the Mount
Now reviled and persecuted the Teacher who came to show them The Way
Those who hungered and were fed with loaves and fishes
Showed contempt for the One who was moved with compassion
The Pharisees who diligently studied God’s Word
Did not recognize the Scriptures fulfillment
The Disciples that Jesus called to follow Him
Had now fled, save one who stayed nearby
The Innocent’s blood was shed
For the guilty who stand condemned in their sin
The cleansing blood of the Lamb applied to the sin debt
Of those whom the Father had given Him from before the foundations of the world
The condemned clothed in self righteousness
Will stand before the Holy, Righteous Son of God to give an account
The guilty clothed in Christ’s Righteousness
Stand forgiven and are bid to enter in
