Whatever the Cost-A Poem for Good Friday

Whatever the Cost
Whatever the Cost

 

It was a cross that set me free

And purchased there my victory

While Jesus there my case did plead

So willingly to die and bleed

Never shirking such wretched pain

He bore my sin, it’s crimson stain

To cloak me with His righteousness

Though I am merely nothingness

 

I have no Glory I can bring

No accolades of which to sing

Until I find my place in Him

From darkness, then His light can beam

Upon a World so filled with need

That then my heart desires to plead

On bended knees, their case in prayer

I willingly my cross do bear

 

Whatever sorrow I must face

To point the lost to God’s dear Grace

Dear Lord, my life I give to You

To do with as You wish to do

My journey guided by Your hand

Your strength alone on which I stand

So, take my life and let it be

Whatever You desire for me

 

And If for me you choose a cross

That I might count all gain but loss

Compared to You, my Lord and King

My Joy will still Your praises sing
