Compassion Revealed
Yielding Himself
a living sacrifice
midst gruesome crucifixion*
upon Calvary’s Hill
Christ* magnified
compassion
graciously at work…
His blood offered
redemption’s ransom
as divine payment
acquitting those trusting Him
the sin-condemned
including me
to own eternal life…
Sealed with pardon-freedom
God's believers gratefully
soar triumphantly by faith
propelled midst obedience
empowered through the Holy Spirit
while blissfully reaching-out
to share love and peace.
*1Corinthians 1:23 …We preach Christ crucified.
