Words by Bev Jones
The Crucifixion
And so they watch…
The Pharisees, angry and proud
The soldiers, officious and cruel
The crowd, indifferent and ignorant
And yet…
There are those who are wondering
Those who are grieving
Those who are repenting
Those who are recognising
That this man could be who he said he was
He could be…
The King of Kings
The Son of God
The Saviour of the World
He could be…
Dying for my sins
Restoring
Interceding
Loving
He could be…
Everything I’ve ever needed
And in Him I could be…
Forgiven
Accepted
Defined
Loved
Reconciled
with my God in whom I find my meaning.
And so, in the midst of the chaos
I kneel
I repent
I adore
I accept
That this is truly the Messiah
And I am grateful beyond words
And the skies darken
And the son of God dies
And I am made whole – one with God
