Jesus

Jesus He gave His life for a worthless society And for those who would follow Him , He offered eternity God almighty willingly left His Heavenly throne And walked among earthy sinners Offering them residency in His Divine Home Angels must have cried tears of blood To witness what we did to God the Father and God the Son The Creator of creation , the most High And what shame they must have felt When He was crucified They must have wondered why Their Lord above all Lords was willing to die For a fithy race wallowing in iniquity But thank God He did so for the likes of you and me We must never assume we can repay Him For what he has done to save our souls No wealth is able to cover the sacrifice Jesus gave So we might fellowship and be guided by the Holy Ghost by Joan May Donnelly Ellis August 5 2016

Amen! We could never repay him, all we could do is thank him with love, faith and appreciation. Loved the pouring out of your words.
