Christ Crossed

Crucify him crucify him my own declared Heart a trembling My God so scared Say who I am the nails I shall feel Hold back my silence the enemy shall steal Wounded Oppressed afflicted blows they gave chosen Apostles runneth into caves Came I down from far above created place I am the Dove Crucify him what's this you say healed I the sick asketh not for pay Crucified me while standing and gazing they all like sheep my children stay grazing yonder garden where I was betrayed not one stood with me while I yet prayed Asked friends will you stay awake for you see my life they shall take Gave you life my heart screamed with a sigh Crucify him is still the reply Crucify him Crucify him They yelled with glee ears dull of hearing died I on the tree
