The Super Human
There once lived a great
man,
That redeemed the hopes
of all human.
He gave up everything,
For us to have something.
He was rejected,
For us to be accepted.
He was stressed,
For us to be blessed.
He was laboured,
For us to be favoured.
He was neglected,
For us to be celebrated.
He was condemned,
For us to be redeemed.
His life was destroyed,
For our lives to be restored.
His heart was sheltered,
For ours to be gathered.
He was agonised,
For us to be recognised.
He was disrespected,
For us to be respected.
He went through misery,
For us to have a long
lasting victory.
In all reality,
He made us a celebrity.
He was punished,
For us to flourish.
He was abused,
For our enemies to be
confused.
He suffered for a while,
For us to be able to smile.
He was tortured,
For us to have a great
future.
He took away all atom of
sickness,
Bringing to us much joy
and happiness.
He sacrificed himself,
For us to be ourselves.
He died bearing the burden
of our inequity,
For the betterment of the
world of humanity.
