Why Suffer
Again?
There
is none like You.
None
compare.
Your
glory is magnificent –
Your
power is amazing.
Imputed
sin upon Your back,
The
world’s guilt on Your shoulders –
Sacrifice
unmatched,
Innocence
unrivaled.
A
torturous death
For
a greater gain.
My
tear may fall
For
all Your pain,
Until
now,
I
realize,
To
weep because my sin put You there
Is
much more beneficial…
Then
I gaze on generations
Now
and to come,
Slowly
I understand
The
enormity of the guilt, pain and sorrow,
They
still choose to carry on their backs.
My
Lord suffered,
Why
suffer again?
