Untitled Forgiveness
He was praying in a garden...
an innocent man down on His knees
when Judas led the soldiers to Him
after He begged "Father please let this cup pass from me."
They dragged Him away!
I have nothing to say...
They spat in his face!
As the blood flowed down from Him,
He thought of me.
Away there goes my sin,
I was too blind to see,
but here we are again.
Now I believe.
A crown of thorns
driven down upon His head.
I am so torn,
but He looks at me once again...
Father forgive them!
They know not what they do!
...then You saved me too.
As the blood flowed down from Him,
He thought of me.
Away there goes my sin,
I was too blind to see,
but here we are again.
Now I believe.
I believe...
I believe...in...what You see
what do You see in me?
I'm the prodigal son once gone,
but You are the One...
who welcomed me home.

Anyhow, I applaud this poem and thank you for posting it.

It was spoken both from my perspective, and slightly from the perspective of Jesus.
