Poem
I saw a Man today as he walked the hill Tears and drops of blood did equal spill From brutally torn flesh and eyes of pain I saw a Man today my inadequate refrain I saw a Man today unjustly convicted His trial was short and clearly scripted The verdict assured without any proof I saw a Man today who spoke only truth I saw a Man today abandoned by friends Who claimed to be strangers by pretends Before the cock crowed denying Him thrice I saw a Man today and words cannot suffice On a hill called the skull I saw a Man today ‘Father, forgive them’, is what I heard Him say Through nails and a crown of thorns grace He sought I saw a Man today the world’s debt He bought For I saw a Man today more innocent than me Take up my sentence while I just walked free He bore the crucifixion cross in my place I saw a Man today, I looked upon His face I saw a Man today and He saw into my heart And took away the darkness and gave me a new start He broke the chains that bound tighter than the jail I saw a Man today whose blood tore the veil I saw a Man today and He died upon that cross Sacrificed for me and all the world’s lost He could have called a heavenly army But I saw a Man today who chose to die for me Three days past I saw that Man die upon the beam A death that changed my path it would so seem And now before His empty tomb an angel doth stand Why seek you in this place of death The Living Man?
