There He Stood
alone...for all had fled
the...Scapegoat
with the sins of the world upon His Head
There...He Stood
so silent…behold...The Man
following His Purpose…gifting the world
with His…Priceless…Love Band
There He...Stood
beaten...almost beyond recognition
with a thorn em-bedded scalp...
for every man's contrition
There He …Stood
Not trying to placate nor defend
for He knew that He was, indeed…
the Beginning...and the End
Enduring the lies and cruel hate
so aware…that His Blood would soon stain wood
yet, He accepted His preordained fate
doing what non-other had ever done…or ever could!
Blameless…though He be
Our Blessed Redeemer…did not…what we would
He called no army of angels…but…for you and me…
There…He Stood!
