Beautiful Jesus

 

 

The sandals that He wore

torn and tattered and dirty

did not change the appearance

of the the holy feet and their beauty.

 

The crown of thorns He wore

stabbing Him in the head

sharp and painful

but still onward He tread.

 

The cross that He carried

so heavy and so tall

falling on Him with each step

but He did not stall.

 

That's what I see when I think

of what Jesus did for me

He didn't hesitate to carry on

so we could have the victory. 

 

How beautiful it must have been

to see Him give His life

for a people who didn't deserve it

yet He still did what was right. 

 

When I think about the Lord

I remember that should have been me

hanging on a cross

for my sins and for the whole world to see.

 

So thank you Jesus

for carrying me along

when times are too tough

and I'm not that strong.

I found this poem very visual especially Jesus carrying the cross and what a burden that must have been!  Praise Jesus Praise Him For His Victory for us , we will never grasp the full extent of what He has done. Praise Him
