Jerusalem and Jesus Christ... these two forever known, The place God's Son was sacrificed... the place true love was shown, With John and Mary standing there... compelled to see it all, Heartbroken, sobbing unaware before God's miracle... For Jesus could have run away... escaped into the night... Instead, the Saviour chose to stay... and do what God thought right... He loved the Father way too much! How could Christ let Him down? That's why He suffered whips and such... and why He wore that crown... I wasn't there to save His skin... or soothe His final breath, My Saviour died... my soul to win... He's Jesus of Nazareth... Before I lived... Christ died for me... the Bible tells me so... That's how I found through Calvary the kindest love I'll know... And yet God raised Him from the dead... with proofs we could discern, So we quote Jesus... who once said... 'My friends, I will return...' We wait the Rapture fervently... we pray to see that day... Fulfillment of His prophecy... then up, up, up... away... Denis Martindale March 2018.

TO CALVARY AND BEYOND!
