In Jesus' Name 4/18/08
In Jesus' name,
Today I pray,
Within my heart,
To always stay,
To let me not
Forget these words,
For Jesus' heart
Will never hurt.
For this one Man,
For all His days,
Was the perfect
One, in all ways.
From His Father,
He took His will,
In harmony,
And yet He still,
Became the One,
On Whom man's sin,
In all disgrace,
Was taken in.
For all the good
He did on earth,
He was not seen
For His one worth,
But Calvary
Was His reward,
Was taken there
By the swift sword,
Of lying men,
False witnesses,
Before Pilate,
Who did their best,
To have this Man
Scourged and scorned,
Upon His head
A crown of thorns,
Led right on to
His Holy fate,
Upon the Cross,
To Heaven's gate.
What few saw then,
Some few see now,
The whips and chains,
Blood on His brow.
But what really
Needs to be seen,
Is what does lay
Within the King,
His gentle heart,
Full of mercy,
His way of love
For all to see,
How He wants us
To come to Him,
To take away
Our filthy sin,
And make us right
With our Father,
Who for our sakes,
Did even bother,
To send His Son
To die for us,
Upon that saving
And Holy Cross.
