Christ and the Cross
The cross is considered a sacred symbol
An icon that many people have cherished
But is was an instrument used by Satan
For his amusement where many perished
Christ and two others on the cross
Were hung upon Satan’s death device
An innocent man led to the slaughter
Our replacement as a human sacrifice
He hung bleeding on the cross
With his hand spread out wide
Forgiveness was Jesus Christ’s aim
Shown through the pain he did not hide
They reviled and wagged their heads
As they looked on him up on high
They cursed and ridiculed
As they walked on by
They shouted “He saved others,”
“But himself he can not.”
“Come down Oh King of Israel”
“Come down from the cross”
God’s prize possession destroyed
Was what Satan had thought
Useless to all humankind on his cross
Worth thirty pieces of silver which he had bought
Darkness fell on the earth the ground shook
All sin was ushered to the cross and surrounded him
This was Satan glorious moment
The time when he was lead to believe he would win
But Christ’s hand were spread for a reason
To embrace sin through time and space
And to replace it with an the attributes of God
His unconditional Love and Grace
That is why Jesus cried out to God
“Father why have you forsaken me?”
God had to remove his spirit from Christ
As he cannot be associated with sin you see
God did this, and gave his only son for
You and Me.
