Easter Poem

Once again I thank you as I survey your wonderous cross

It requires me to count all things as loss

We are reminded today of your amazing grace

As now I can behold your wonderful face

My soul sings to My God to Thee

That you would lay down your life for me

You nailed my sin to the cross, I bear it no more 

To forgive, and bring us to Father, that's what you came for. 

Only you were able to pay it all, pay it all

On bended knee and prostrate I fall

I was lost but now I'm found

How glorious, how wonderful the sound

Bread of heaven broken for me

I once was blind but now I see

Nothing but the blood could set us free

You did it as you died upon the tree 

You scorned the shame endured the cross

When it seemed everything was at loss

It is finished you cried

Now my life in Christ you hide

Death could not hold you down

As King of Kings you wear the crown

Up from the grave you arose

And here defeated all your foes

Now you are exalted to the highest place

Where one day we'll see you face to face

We are forever changed never the same

May I now live a life worthy of your name 

Your whole life was an example for us

May we therefore count our lives as loss

Help us to walk as you walked as you shew

So the world may know you are making all things new
