Jesus Took My Place

Jesus Took My Place! Jesus died in the place for me! So I can be with him, for eternity! My debt to him, was paid IN FULL, This is because he loves me so! On his head, were placed the crown of thorns! Enduring so much pain and scorn. The blood from his body began to flow, His love for all of mankind did show! Three nails were in his feet and hands, The pain he went through is hard to understand. His life for mine, is what he gave! He's no longer dead, but arose from the grave! By Jim Pemberton 09/29/16
