It Was Done

IT WAS DONE

3 nails and a cross and it was done
They crucified the Holy One
3 nails and a cross He bore that for me
It was done so I could be set free

It was done one day long ago
Jesus is alive and well this I know
The grave is empty, the stone rolled away
It was done so that lost we would not stay

It was done for me, it was done for you
it was done to make a way through
They did not take His life He gave it you see
It was done to save you and me


                                                                RUTH PHIPPS
