His Story
The sadness that God's heart must feel when looking down on men
Who in their dark irreverence are hiding in their sin
Cannot be comprehended not be fully understood
Unless examined in the light of that great cross of wood
The cross whereon that Sacrifice that wrenched His heart in two
Did demonstrate the depth of love He has for me and you
Where Jesus Christ His precious Son did die the perfect Lamb
Revealing love as power in the One Who is I Am
The One Who stood beside Him from the ageless eons past
Who being God did lay aside divinity and cast
His lot with those created in His image at His hand
To bring them His salvation as together They had planned
Salvation from our lost estate back to what He'd begun
When He created everything when His first work was done
When all was pure and perfect flawless to the nth degree
From sun and moon and stars above to things that we can't see
Like tiny little nutrients within the cells of things
Provided for our nourishment that every season brings
In food God has provided for the service of mankind
To give us health and clarity to have an open mind
That we might see more clearly in the body of His Word
The beauty truth and testament that from His lips are heard
As by His Holy Spirit He shares truths we have not learned
Through living grace He gives to us that never can be earned
But does require everything we have that He's supplied
To be abandoned to His work like His life was applied
To reaching souls in darkness who know not the love of Him
Who gave His Son and all He had to save the souls of them
And not just as we see Him in the pictures that portray
Our Saviour hanging on that cross that dark and dismal day
But also to be One with us throughout eternity
The Man Who bore our sorrows ever One with you and me
Because He could not leave us to be lost without His love
Without providing everything His story tells us of
And will be always present in His head and hands and feet
Through scars that demonstrate God's love that would not know defeat
Isaiah 53
