The crown you wear
of sticks and thorns
Your skin bleeds
Your flesh is torn

Betrayed and hurt
But forgiving those
Who shout at you
and rip your clothes

You beg your Father
to leave them be
Only human
they do not see

You take it all
for days on end
with love in your heart
free of sin

Nailed to boards
your mother weeps
praying for mercy
at your feet

You died for our sins
In heaven with Him
Now thanks to you
We can be forgiven
