it's time...the sky is dark the sun is gone
dark heavy clouds had come
as thunder rolled and lightning struck
the heavy rain kept pouring
and dripping the entire night
Jesus is dead, the deed is done
Jesus had suffered, expired and died...
silence airily permeates the mounts of Calvary
except for the burst of tears and agony from Mary
her son, the Holy one is lifeless
hanging on a wooden cross
His shoulders drooping with the weight
of our sins, our shameless faults
His head with blood induced by
the prick of the crown of thorns
now as we reflect on this coming Holy week
how can one suffer so much to save our sins
how can one whose heart is so big
had done this and sacrificed his life
so that you and i and all of us may live
the bright lights were turned on
the magic of the moment is here once more
as each year on this holy time
we remember...
that One lived
and One died
on that cross for us
that One cared
and loved us
so much...
as the end is in sight
the beginning of a brighter tomorrow
with Jesus comes
after His resurrection
the glow on that horizon is unsurpassed
for
He is the light, the truth and the way
and
He is the only One that can give us happiness
that unending joy and great glory :)
