A Possible Argument For Mercy
Did heaven ever seem so far?
Remember, we are as You were,
but all our lives, from birth to death—
Gethsemane in every breath.

Did the Stars
Did the stars shine that night,
Or Withhold all their light,
That night in Gethsemane.
Was the sky e'er so dim,
As when they crucified Him,
That day on Calvary.
Will my heart ever know,
How He suffered so,
And still felt love for me.

Gethsemane
In the Garden of Gethsemane do I retreat
To counter the passions of the night
With the Passion of Christ
I open the gate to the garden
I see my Savior waiting on the bench
We meet each others eyes
I kneel down and pray with Him in Silence
And sweet slumber takes me home...

Save Sinful Man
SAVE SINFUL MAN
Came to a place named Gethsemane
A disciple said “sit here while I pray”
The Lord said the world shall tie me down
Hung Him up the Christ
Drove the nail through His hands
It's all part of Gods plans
TO SAVE A SINFUL MAN

The Olive Tree Plight
Aged olive tree
Where Jesus knelt
Still alive today
A thousand years
Or more growing
Unabandoned
Exposed yet free
Open witness before
A history once more
In Gethsemane waving
It leaves to the world
Triumphant, victorious
And never commit errs
Till eternity and gospel wish
Crown the returned of the Victor....

Lord's Singing
I heard my Saviiour,
At the dark gate of Gethsemane,
A wondrous song He sang,
And sweet to remember.
He said, I am in this,
Nearer to the Cup of Calvary,
Through which salvation,
Must come to all mankind,
All alone having been deserted,
I heard my Saviour sing,
In the greatest hour of His need,
In the dark Gethsemane....

The Fallen of Gethsemane
The blood spilled on the often fluid ground
and marked the place where young men ceased to be.
Until a time when birdsong fills the air
and crimson flags demand “Look, this is me”.
I am the souls of young men everywhere
anointed by the tears of loves and family.
Avail this place with all due reverence
and don’t forget the dead beyond Gethsemane....

Easter Lily
Easter lilies bloomed
where His sweat fell to the ground
hope of Christ's return
a garden pure white
life everlasting
By Rhonda Johnson-Saunders
*The Easter lily symbolizes purity, hope and life.
Tradition has it that lilies were growing in the Garden of
Gethsemane after Christ's crucifixion, and lilies
bloomed where his sweat fell, the hope of everlasting life....

Gethsemane
Gethsemane,
And sweat like blood.
Disciples quite
Misunderstood.
Golgotha's cross,
Forsaken cry,
Misunderstood.
Why does he die?
In borrowed grave,
Cold death entombed.
Misunderstood —
Disciples' gloom.
Alive again!
Still disbelieved,
Misunderstood
By hearts deceived.
Misunderstood
Today? By you?
Know you not what
He came to do?
See Matthew chapter 26 and Mark chapter 14

Peter the Rock
Peter the Rock
afraid of cock
hailed from fishermen
appointed to catch men
called to be apostle
wrote two epistles
given the keys of hell
proclaimed JESUS well
introduced by Andrew to Christ
prompted to withdraw fish net
accepted Jesus at Bethany
declined at Gethsemane
shattered by the threat
restored by His gracious look
gave up timidity showed boldness
turn out the world with word
martyred for Christ upside down...

Choices
In the garden of Gethsemane
The ultimate choice was made
Father not My will but Thine be done
Was what the Saviour prayed
He could have chosen to walk away
And to turn His Back on man
The debt we owed was too great a price
That only He could understand
A search was made in Heaven
Only He could answer the call
He chose to be the Sacrifice
And to die for one and all
Life is full of choices
So choose this day and live
Choose to follow Jesus
With all you have to give...
