His body cracked,
    from an eterity of damnnation.
A blinded man, set free to see,
    providing for generations of sons and daughters.
Destiny, held firm a vision,
    with no strings of guilt to tie us down.
His body was cracked,
    but he wasn't crippled.

Aged with his sacfrice,
the sins he endured with each crack of the whip.
blood shed, to free man.

The glory of a sacrificed King,
upon a cross with dignity.
Love crosses the threshold of eternity.

To prosper our hopeful futures,
a generation to spread the wealth of truth.
A glorious love, unconditional.

He shed his blood upon a cross,
he lived to die,
a sacrifice for all eternity.

-before I read it differently-
His body cracked,
Aged with his sacfrice,
the sins he endured with each crack of the whip.
blood shed, to free man.
    from an eterity of damnnation.

A blinded man, set free to see,
The glory of a sacrificed King,
upon a cross with dignity.
Love crosses the threshold of eternity.
    providing for generations of sons and daughters.

Destiny, held firm a vision,
To prosper our hopeful futures,
a generation to spread the wealth of truth.
A glorious love, unconditional.
    with no strings of guilt to tie us down.

His body was cracked,
He shed his blood upon a cross,
he lived to die,
a sacrifice for all eternity.
    but he wasn't crippled.

Love crosses the threshold of eternity.


It does, He told us so.

Very beautiful work, dear Kellie.
