A Soul Awakened

On a traumatic morning
Series of trials the week before
The sentenced await death
Cruxifiction their crime's penalty
Thieves they were
Robbed many of their possession
But one alone is different
He was the greatest thief
Stole human's greatest grief
Took away the sorrow of many
Robbed humanity of death
Puts life in its stead
Ran away with Man's amassed condemnation
Now he is bound to die
At calvary
To be risen the third day
And ascended to the firmament

Thank God for your patience. I just pray you are ready when the thief will come and steal His own people
