He Gave His Spirit

The cross bears our transgressions For we hung Him on that tree When it was time He be released We shouted do not set Him free Born of a virgin, Mary He led the temple at age twelve He grew in strength, He grew in wisdom And all the land did know Him well Destined for a purpose Designed to set us free Wearing His stripes Alone that night He gave His spirit just for me
