His Pure Love

His pure love,
   was shown,
that day
       at calvary.

They didn't
take away Jesus's
life that day
He gave it freely.

A crown of thorns
was placed oh His head,
blood flowed down
His face that day.

He was guilty
of no crime,
only of the
pure love He gave away.

He was mocked
and shamed,
beaten with
so many stipes.

His face was
so bloody that
day at calvary
he tried to carry,

His cross but so
weak to do it,
Simon Cyrene was
compelled to bear
   His cross.

Jesus came into this
world to show,
us His pure love,
now He was to,

really show the
world His pure
love for us, Jesus
was nailed to the,

cross that day,
suffering and dying
for the sins of the
world.

Everyone thought
they had seen the
last of Jesus, but
3 days later, He arosed
    from the dead.

After showing Himself
to over 500 people and
telling His disciples to
spread the gospel,

He was taken up and
a cloud received Him
out of their sight,
and that is what easter
is all about.
