Because

Because He emptied Himself of all but love,
 . . .  you can be filled.

Because His body was broken,
 . . .  your life can be whole.

Because His blood was shed,
 . . .  your sins can be forgiven.

Because He submitted to injustice,
 . . .  you can forgive.

Because He finished His Father's work,
 . . .  your life has worth.

Because He was forsaken,
 . . .  you will never be alone.

Because He was buried,
 . . .  you can be raised.

Because He lives,
 . . .  you don't have to be afraid.

Because He was raised,
 . . .  you can be strong.

Because He reached down to you,
 . . .  you don't have to work your way up to Him.

Because His promises are always true,
 . . .  you can have Hope!
