On this day,
a life was lost.
On a rocky hill,
on a wooden cross.
The earth quaked
and the heavens shook;
Did anyone notice?
Did anyone look?
A temple fell,
It was rendered asunder. Lightening streaked and the sky boomed thunder.
Far above and beyond the skies; pride, joy and sorrow join as heaven sighs.
Oh what sorrow must have been felt; what a horrible hand, to your Son, have dealt.
No greater gift, his only begotten Son; our salvation was granted where there could
have been none.
Upon the earth,
No darker day.
He came because
He had to, to
Show us the way.
Even his life could
End but in death.
But the miracle
Unfolds at the
Very next step.
Such a horrible
Deed, it had to
Be done. For
In such a death
Our victory
Was won.
