Forsaken
Now that he is gone, the world will
be lost, they put him on a tree, not
counting the cost.
Spitting and ridicule, was their
aggression, he suffered and died for
them, no question.
They did not believe, that he was
the savior, crown of thorns, beatings
was their behavior.
His father looked down, he turned
away, the son was dying, the sky
turned grey.
Out of death, the promise fulfilled
to everyone his love, the spirit
instilled.
hells power was no more, the keys
taken, he assended on high, to just
the forsaken.
