Jesus' walk to Calvary

Not despising all His Glory Jesus walked to His Own death

Having powers far beyond Him; He could have escaped that final breath

But He embraced it, His own condemantion by the peoples He would save

See Him walking: the Lamb unsullied; Jesus, Savior accepted the grave

Crowds are shouting, who once had praised Him:  "Crucify Him" loud and clear

Spitting, cursing and ridiculing: mobs increased their awful cheer

Ahead, the road,  to His death, most awful; had its callenges we could see

Added suffering and humiliation, accompanied Jesus to Calvary

The terrible moment, that awful moment, when Jesus was laid upon the tree;

Flesh was tearing, blood was pouring; and we heard Him cry out  in  agony

Big, blunt, iron steaks, pierced Him roughly; then they lifted Him from the ground

The tree, now, serving: as executioner; increased its difficulties all around

Those, who loved Him. more than anyone; helplessly, watched Him sigh and heave

Mother Mary and John the Apostle; kept on waiting beneath that treacherous tree

"Father, forgive them"; "Here is your mother"; and "in the Heavens you'll join ME"

Preceeded final moments, of being thirsty; and, that surrender,  to what would be

Soon,  the world was steeped in darkness, that comes from having nothing more

Than, that empty feeling, of having lost Jesus; for choosing evil, over Heaven's door

Lowering slowly His Lifeless Body...all  the remaining disciples reluctantly

Layed Him gently, on the lap of Mary, who once had coddled Him so maternally

The sorrowful Mother and grieving disciples remained inside a pressing crowd

Who seemed to cheer out in celebration with cries of victroy gross and loud

Once they cleared out, all those masses the faithful took Him to the grave

Washed Him wrapped Him layed Him, sadly, into a tomb they procurred that day

So it,ended, as it had started: with piercing pains within their hearts

Jesus, lifeless, inside a sepulcher;  no one wishing to leave Him or depart

All would depart there depsite their loving Him not aware of God's Good Plan

The story was ended but a new one started Of Jesus, Savior, God made man
