Step by step

Painfully taken

Feeling forsaken

As sin’s weight

Draped Him like a cape

Plunging shoulders

Touch the rising narrow road

Painful steps taken

Leading outside the city

There waited the wooden cross

To display his marred appearance

Beaten, battered and bleeding

Nailed and naked He hung

Crown of thorns driven in

His skull

For you and me

No greater Love

Can be found

Than this sacrifice

His body broken for you

His blood shed for me

Sealed covenant

That we can live

Abundantly & Eternally

Across the Great Divide
