It is quiet, I will share this here too, because the Lord had me weep through writing it early this morning.
REJECTION
He who alone was totally righteous,
Knew the dreadful agony of true loneliness,
For His Father could not look upon the sin,
So here He was for my sake the sacrificial offering.
He created the wood, upon which He hung,
Those for whom He was dying jeering insults flung,
He came into this world, knowing what He would endure,
But it called for a sacrifice of the only one who was pure.
My Saviour left behind heaven’s glory for me to die,
And as I look upon that cross floods of tears I cry,
It was to take away my sin and shame that His blood was shed,
The pain He suffered there was excruciating as for me He bled.
It was love, grace and mercy that took Him there,
Nailed to that cross for one such as me, a sinner,
If I had been the only one He would have done it all for me,
His heart was filled with love and compassion for me.
The grave could not hold Him and He rose again,
Triumphant over the power of death and the grave,
Yes it was for me that He had suffered rejection,
For me whom He loved so much and came to save.
And because He gave me that free gift of salvation,
Abba Father and I have gone through reconciliation ,
He has called me His child and now I belong to His Family,
And I know that with Him I will spend all eternity.
