Passover

Pass Over

Beaten so badly and crucified,
up on the cross He stands.
Taking it all in with patience,
the hatred, and the sins of man.

He worked so hard,
healing wounds and teaching the truth.
He sacrificed His life for us,
spilling out His blood for proof.

In His death, He gave us life.
For those who chose to follow his path.
The ones that mocked His faith,
will spend eternity facing His wrath.

As He faced death on the cross that day,
He spoke His last words, "It is done."
He has shown us all forgiveness,
and in that, we have been given Salvation.
