Betray Me Not

Long ago through circumstance, the Father sent his son, 
to save and serve all of us from the damage we had done.

Born of the flesh in Bethlehem, He led a humble life.
He overcame temptations, for forty days and night's.

Knowing that his destiny would lead him to his death.
He preached and prayed for all us, until his final breath.

Sometimes we don't understand, the error of our ways,
We take a different path that leads us all astray. 

So repent and ask forgiveness, and your sins will fade away. 
For his death upon the cross, we should not betray.
