The Cross Of Your Sacrifice....a poem I recently wrote.

Romans 8:32 He who did not withhold or spare [even] His own Son but gave Him up for us all, will He not also with Him freely and graciously give us all [other] things?
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The Cross Of Your Sacrifice
My heart beholds Your glory;
As my lips sing Your praise.
I am undone in Your Presence;
My heart beholds Your glory;
In the Cross of Your sacrifice.

This is Your greatest Glory;
In the darkest hour ever known.
Behold the dying Lamb of God;
You left Your great Throne above;
To be God and Man all in one.
I See You there on the Cross You chose;
To pay the debt we owed;
In the cross of Your sacrifice.

You beheld the cross with joy;
But despised the shame You bore.
You took it all for me;
Down to the crown of thorns you wore.
Jesus, You gave us Your all;
Knowing it would more than suffice.
You gave us everything;
In the Cross of Your Sacrifice.
