A Rose That's In Full Bloom

In the garden of Gethsemane on that dismal night --- Jesus deep in prayer was quite an awesome sight --- His tears were like drops of blood, that fell from His eyes --- Yet they were that of Holy water, that descends from Heavenly skies --- Three times Jesus prayed to His Father on high --- Three times did He admonish us with a heavy sigh --- Then as the Pharisees, Chief Priests and soldiers took Jesus away --- We scattered in all directions, like sheep that has gone astray --- Hanging upon a Roman cross, Christ died for all our sins --- Giving us eternal salvation and assurance, that God always wins --- Our Lord was taken down and placed enshrouded, inside Joseph of Arimathea's tomb --- On the third day, was resurrected from all it's dark and lonely gloom --- Appearing before us in that large and furnished upper room --- We witnessed the Great Commission, like a rose that's in full bloom --- Ascending towards God's Kingdom, for all of us to see --- Jesus promised that He would be with us, for all eternity.
