The Ultimate Sacrifice
He saw the beauty in all
whether inside or out
he could stare for hours
trying to figure them out
Along with seeing beauty
the repulsive would follow
he saw the evil and horror
lack of soul left them hollow
He tried to help them
for years upon years
hardly changing a thing
his eyes swelled with tears
He could not give up
not with so many more
he could not back down
to this never ending chore
What was he to do then
surely there was a way
he just had to consider
the right thing to say
Suddenly it came to him
the world's chance for rebirth
he would send his only son
to the hell on earth
His son could help them
he could show them the light
maybe there was a chance after all
to help them choose the right
His son agreed to help
knowing his impending stride
to lead them to salvation
then eventually crucified
...a lifetime later...
Everything went as planned
he taught them fidelity
hoping when he was gone
they would still believe
When he returned to his father
he told him he truly tried
his father smiled in reply
unmistakenly gleaming with pride
They then turned to look down
on all those left behind
knowing they made a difference
in every single one's mind
For even those who did not believe
would never forget the sight
of the man who saved lives
the man who never put up a fight.
He died for our sins
that much is true
how could you not see
how much he loves you?
