Calvary Concluded

“So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. 17Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18Here they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.” Jn 19:16-18 NIV Calvary concluded— Christ’s right to be King. His Lordship to be honored; His praises to sing. His Father’s glory He mirrored When He entered this world. The love of His father Before the universe unfurled. Calvary concluded Satan’s right to this place. Became Christ’s right instead And Satan’s disgrace. To all of the worlds Looking on in amazement; At the depth of His hatred So totally blatant. Calvary concluded Murder of the innocent. Vengeance of the tempter Never before so fervent. He thought He had eradicated His object of jealousy. Only to find No end to his journey. For Christ the over comer Came forth from death. No grave could hold Him, Nor deplete Him of breath. His death showed the universe The injustice of Satan. Why his final eradication Is pure justice in action. Copyright © 2007-2011 Maureen LeFanue
