April 18. Good Friday

Gen. 22:1-8

When Lord asks.

Sets daunting tasks.

Heart not feeling okay

But steadfastly obey.

For sacrifice has to be made

Though feelings are so sad.

Yet God will provide.

Always been on my side.

My faith will past the test.

God promises his best.

To fulfil through me.

Amazing future to see.

Luke 23:26-49

Now Gods sacrifice made

for sins that were forbade.

What disaster awaits

Sin never abates.

When we are on cross

Deserve our great loss.

Now cry out to him

deliver us from sin.

Jesus then does say

You will be with me today.

Though we look from afar

Wonder who you are.

We see signs from above

Showing Fathers great love.

Ps. 53

Just amazing to see

the Lord suffering for me.

Powerful yet weak.

Humiliated so meek.

Ignored and rejected

by those God selected.

He did it all

because of our fall.

So often refuse.

To give him his dues.

Our God unbelievably

Came down just for me.

The victory now his.

That none may miss.

His kingdoms now come

for everyone.

Ps. 22

Oh God where are you.

You see what men do.

Please help me in this mess.

Have read that you do bless.

So still I am bold.

Gods child I am told.

Yet all I now face.

Fear I am in disgrace.

Yet to him I give praise.

For all of my days.

Power comes from him.

Together we can win.
