loves light is still not out

The Sword Fell Pierced Your Heart


 


arise


there is a stirring in the wind


the wings of an angelic dove


with love


solace by a early morning spring


hearts will implode to a reasonable episode


whispers


down the cobblestone walkway


waiting


there cometh a man with a wooden cross


a lone helper took it for a while


he would climb on step at a time


sought through love


from the hands of time


alone for a while in his stead


crys heard from Golgotha's sight


Mother Mary crying by the side


along with that of brother James


the flames of agony were put out once for all


putting all our sin on that cross


this was no tragic loss


for in three days he would rise


Herod once tried to snuff him out


philosophers chose to see him as a blemish nor a spot


they spit in his face


they pulled his beard


made him wear a crown of thorns


sound the alarm


 


the prongs of whom stripes i am healed


we all should yield to his humble spirit


at last was fulfilled spoken by the prophet Jeremiah


there is none but higher


mock him


put him to scorn


some try to curse the very day he was every born


but he has forgiven in spite of the sin that was put on him


yet the yoke of tyranny will not be taken from us


his dominion is the everlasting dominion that shall not pass away


a dominion that shall not be destroyed


for he yoke is easy & burden is light


never relent to ever give up on the fight


Jesus
