“Jesus Wept”
John 11:35

Jesus wept,
Jesus died.
Humiliated – Crucified.

Willingly,
Bearing blame.
My transgression – His deep shame.

Gladly offered,
Lifted high.
Lord of heaven – heard his cry.

Jesus risen,
Life restored.
Throned in glory – death no more.

Blood outpouring,
Hope conceived.
Ardent prayer – grace received.

Broken hearted,
Bended knee.
Fully reconciled to Thee.
