Good Friday

This day our Saviour did die,
But there is no reason to cry.
The only reason we weep,
Is because the hold on sin we keep.

For salvation did come along ago,
Because our Saviour, His love did show.
He offers it to all who believe,
Then they, my Christ shall receive.

For He made His way up that hill,
And through this, His promise He did fulfill.
For salvation does not come by works of good,
Even though some people think it should.

For the blood that did flow from the cross,
Helped to refine and burn away sin's dross.
We are blinded by our sinful state,
And we in this state will not cooperate.

For we celebrate this day, because of what He did,
When He through salvation, our souls of sin He rid.
No other day holds so much promise,
Because of what He did for us.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
