NO STRANGER TO PAIN

Our Lord and God is no stranger to pain
His death on the cross was most ignominious and inhumane.
He was unmercifully flogged and made to wear a crown of thorns
All the while suffering our rejections and scorns.
He was nailed to a cross fashioned by the hands on man
His death was the only thing we knew to demand.
Then a spear was thrust into His side
To assure no posibility of life could reside.
And yet, with His dying breath, the words that came through
FORGIVE THEM FATHER FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO.
Sin was the reason for this merciless death
It can rob us too of our very own breath.
Sin can make us do things that are hideously cold
It can take the life right out of your very soul.
We all do remind Christ of His suffering and pain
When it is with sin we choose to remain.
For Christ came here to take sin from us
To lead us back to Our Father's trust.
His cross is here to remind us of what He went through
To forgive our sins, so we could live life anew...
