The Sacrifice

On a cross, He willingly hung,
His sacrifice, For all was done.
He bore our sins, took all the strife,
So we can have, an eternal life.

His precious blood, it was shed,
Upon the Earth, it now has spread.
He gave his life, a selfless act,
So we can be forgiven, all intact.

His love for us, so deep and strong,
It echoes through, our every song.
He paid the price, that we might live,
Our savior, he did give.

No greater gift, can we ever receive,
Than the life, he chose to leave.
He conquered death, triumphed over the grave,
Our souls are now, forever saved.

So we'll praise His name , forevermore,
For the sacrifice, that he bore.
Jesus Christ, our Lord and King,
We'll serve and honour, for eternity's ring.

Please forgive me. I just realized you are not Anisha. Ive been reading her poems for years and I did not nitice your first name. However when I read this poem, I realized it was not here because this is not the kind of poems she writes. I should have realized it on the last poem. This is very well written, Aarush. I will take note of the name next time:)
