The Rising of the Son

The Rising of the Son

Our Jesus was judged with misguided hate
and gave of his life but not to defend
himself to his God but just to befriend
with help from Simon to follow the course
A pre destined place to carry his cross
with two other men who showed their remorse
he saved just one soul, the other was lost
he hung on the cross then later he died
the third day he rose where he would abide
with God and his love and on his right side 

Before his ordeal his miracles spurred
on the blind and the dead and silent voice
feeding five thousand and preaching the word
Now Jesus and Easter are here to rejoice

Enjoyed reading your work. Reads like a good contender. One of the thieves did not show remorse sad to say. Only one wanted to admit that Jesus was the Savior. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara
