~ Fellowship of His Suffering ~
 

LORD, you were oh so lonely -
despised and rejected too,
bearing such heavy sorrow
as everyone turned on you!

LORD, how you must have suffered -
men mocking you with that crown!
JESUS, you were a LOVER
rewarded with but a frown!

JESUS, show me the mystery
of Your Love which is not my own;
please help me endure with patience
‘til the hour when I come home!
