The Super Human

There once lived a great 
man, 
That redeemed the hopes 
of all human.
He gave up everything, 
For us to have something.
He was rejected, 
For us to be accepted.
He was stressed, 
For us to be blessed.
He was laboured, 
For us to be favoured.
He was neglected, 
For us to be celebrated.
He was condemned, 
For us to be redeemed.
His life was destroyed, 
For our lives to be restored.
His heart was sheltered, 
For ours to be gathered.
He was agonised, 
For us to be recognised.
He was disrespected, 
For us to be respected.
He went through misery, 
For us to have a long 
lasting victory.
In all reality, 
He made us a celebrity.
He was punished, 
For us to flourish.
He was abused, 
For our enemies to be 
confused.
He suffered for a while, 
For us to be able to smile.
He was tortured, 
For us to have a great 
future.
He took away all atom of 
sickness, 
Bringing to us much joy 
and happiness.
He sacrificed himself, 
For us to be ourselves.
He died bearing the burden 
of our inequity, 
For the betterment of the 
world of humanity.
