“Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”
They cried.
“Forgive them! Forgive them!”
He replied.
The mass marched in procession
In this parade of death.
He stumbled along
Gasping for breath.
The people cheered and mocked
This bloodthirsty crowd.
He silently staggered and
Prayed with head bowed.
A crowd united in the
Crucifixion of One Man.
But the Savior alone
Took death in His hands.
They thought they commanded
His life and His death.
But He was LIFE itself
And gave up His breath.
The guilty convicted
That day of all sin.
The Righteous One crucified
To bring man’s redemption.
The same crowd that demanded
He be crucified.
Did not understand
He was eternal life.
They offered Him death:
“Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”
They cried.
He brought them life:
“Forgive them! Forgive them!”
He replied.
