‘It is finished’, He said,
Because He looked ahead,
Saw the work completed
And Satan defeated.
Because it is finished,
I shall not be famished.
God will fully furnish
What I need to finish.
This race will be finished
Very well, with finesse.
Coz He began to finish,
I trust Him to finish.
So I am not finished
Coz He’s not finished.
And when He has finished
It shall be done: Finished!
