First Begotten

~The awesome Jesus, the Christ
       The chosen from birth for sacrifice
           The Agape Love with no vice
                Bringer of peace will suffice
                   First begotten Son of the highest

john, the only thing I can think of that kept this from a top ten was not having super exact rhyme. Otherwise, it is superb. And it's meaning is the BEST.

Amen! As sweet as his blessed name, holy and eternal love came in flesh and laid down his life, in spite of his afore knowledge that he would suffer the most painful death! He willingly- The true Lamb of God..died in man's place and still we do not know how FREE indeed we are!! Thank you so much for sharing this during the holy season of Lent, John. Love, Audrey

John, Wayalee's contest is still open. I just looked and I think it's about third from the top on the list of member contests. She has also allowed for 70 entries now since she wants both people to enter their co-writes. Love, Carolyn
