Dogwood Jesus
Jesus the man without sin.
Sent to die for the wrong of mankind.
How sad His Father must have been,
To send His one and only Son to die for the lives of you and I,
Now let me tell you why, Jesus Christ died for us.
A necessary sacrifice to save the world from being lost.
But He did so all of us could find salvation forgiveness through Him.
The King of Kings and two petty thieves.
Left to suffer on Calvary.
Is this what it takes to make them believe?
Calvary. Is this what it takes to make them believe?
He rose in three days.
The stone angelically removed from the grave much to the murderers surprise.
The chains of death could not ensnare, this blameless man's perfect soul.
The Lord wished it known.
He came with love from resurrection,
Not with revenge but redemption.
Indignation set aside from those who left Him on the cross to die.
The chosen one, His blood washed me clean.
To live is Christ to die is gain.
Perpetual love.
Perpetual life.
I fear no man.
Impervious.
I'm born again,
I'll take up my cross.
That's the story of the man without sin.
He has given me a seat at His throne, a sanctuary from my foes.
He has shown me what is good and how to live day by day.
In a perfect sort of way. I can't repay.
But I'll try to live for you it seems impossible to do.
But I can do all things through you,
So I'll rest easy in the knowledge of you.
