Crown of Thornes
Oh how harsh were we to kill the man who came to save us
Oh how doomed we must be to sleep without remorse
A selfless life was cruelly taken from this world,
a crown of thorns placed above his head
Miles of pain and countless collapses bearing a cross
His crushed countenance no longer resembling a man
Covered in blunt nails, lacerated wounds, and innocent blood
Shallow breaths and asphyxiation followed by complete darkness
An act of love for all the sinners
A sacrifice for the salvation and eternal life of humans
Our faith, gratitude, and love relies on him
He is the resurrection, our life, our saviour
It is up to us to prove him that his atonement was worth it
On earth, as it is in heaven.
