At the Cross
"The hard cross reveals an immense love. We can know who we truly are at the cross."
At the cross
Hard wood, hard nailed,
hard faces
Soft flesh.
Sin's focus
Sin's power
Sin's lies.
Flawlessness embraces flaws
Perfect enveloping terrible
Hope infusing fear,
Love enfolds the cold,
Streams of mercy
heaven's cascade,
Washing clean.
It's who Jesus is.
Some sins escape me,
The things I don't do
when I could
I slip,
Good is not enough
in God's perfect.
At the cross
Love revealed,
Immense, wide
Not a half-filled cup
but ocean depths,
Freedom claimed,
Healing imparted,
Forgiveness flows.
Jesus takes all sin.
I am
Loved,
Released...
Oh, the infinite closeness,
It's who I am,
It's who I know.
