Blood, the Beginning For Easter

A drop of blood was the start of our Salvation. 
Yet  one drop was enough for every nation.
But it didn't stop, the whips, stripes  upon  
His back, face unrecognizable, the beard gone.
 
The Father turned His back upon His Son,
until our Redemption was fully done.
On the Cross He took our sins upon Himself that day. .
they didn't taint His pure blood, it washed them away.

Through Jesus blood filled eyes what He could see,
Was the love He had for all humanity..
He asked the Father to forgive, He paid the price,
He gave His life as a sacrifice. 

Jesus  Blood did what Adam could not do. 
Gave the gift of life eternal for me and you.  
With pain that love would not diminish, 
Jesus cried,"It is Finished."

On the third day,Jesus opened up His eyes. 
With His the Saints, to ARISE-- 
He AROSE from the earth where His body lay, 
was seem by many on that  Day.. 

Easter Morning, Full of praise and Glory 
the beginning and finishing of Christ' Story.
HIS Power, Love and Mercy He shared on Earth's shore,
Because He is ALIVE and lives FOREVER More..
