Today twas hurt, I took offense, today prepared my quick defense, today I warred within my head, because of something someone said… Now anger welled from deep inside, twas nothing less than my hurt pride, Should I fight to clear my name, should I dish out the very same? On the war path prepared I to go, To hurt that awful individual, This I thought was the best bet, Revenge I felt I now must get! But from the back of my angry mind, a still small voice spoke from inside, and I listened as I steamed, this is what it said to me… I was despised and rejected of men, carried grief ‘cause of my friends, they turned from me to commit sin, and they transgressed my laws, I gave to them, deep in my soul, I sorrowed more, than any man had sorrowed before… Though I did no harm, they crucified me, nailed my hands onto that tree, I hung naked for all to see, they were offended because of me… The threats I heard, did not deserve, spat in my face, plucked out my beard, But I did not seek revenge, but asked that God would forgive them, some have felt they deserved hell, but i died for them and you as well… I know you’re hurt, I know your pain won’t you let me take that pain, and when you recoil at some offense, remember I too, should have taken offense, but for love, you child are blessed, and remember do unto others as you will have them do unto you, for this is the Love I expect from my Children,, and you are my beloved Beloved!
