Tortured, whipped, lashed at, mocked, <br />and for what? <br />Murder? Crime? Theft? <br />NO! <br />But simply for being a revolutionary, <br /> a good man, a teacher, a healer, <br />spreading the word <br /> <br />you couldn’t handle his truth, and condemned him <br />violently nailed him to that cross <br />crowned with thorns <br />and murdered him like a common criminal <br />Yet his very last message, was of forgiveness <br /> <br />Facing the upmost torture, he did no condemn you <br />He died for you¸ for me, for us, <br />for all of us <br />So that we could receive his grace <br />And what did he get for it? <br /> <br />Tortured, whipped, lashed at, mocked <br />My Lord suffered for my salvation <br />to save my sins, <br />and I am eternally grateful<br /><br />Amy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/that-s-my-lord/
