Picture This

This is not abstract This is not fiction This was NOT practical This was tactical This is actual facts, Jack… This is not a made-up religion This is THAT decision A portrait that portrays A vision of HIS heart Obviously, this isn’t photography But Picture this…. This is why the Scriptures exist Picture this You’re tied to a fixture by your wrist and ankles By the same evil people who on previous days we’re giving you praise Now you’re on display for them (from all angles) You’re not in denial that your trial is fixed The hostile crowd was loud and wild You heard it the verdict was (crucifix), crucify him now Wow….. how did it come to this succumb to this how could you possibly consider it logical to become (numb to this) for real, I cannot and I will not understand nails driven into a living man’s hands and feet whipped, flesh ripped from your back, back there in the street and for what it’s worth, from what I read, you said, in letters red (the meek shall inherit the earth) This is not abstract This is not fiction This was NOT practical This was tactical This is actual facts, Jack… This is not a made-up religion This is THAT decision A portrait that portrays A vision of HIS heart Obviously, this isn’t photography But Picture this…. that would mean that the earth IS yours and although we all know, you ARE the Lord of all Lords it is your blood, shed in love, (that pours) from your side down the side of a hill called Calvary and what baffles me, is your refusal to refuse repurpose, rework this, or reuse the life you choose to loose (at the hands of the same people who were just calling you Hosanna) in the wilderness you fed their ungrateful ancestors manna what manner of man is this that the winds and the sea obey but on today, something so extreme, that YOU took one for the team because we only wanted to play play church, play work, and play instruments and never pray intimately for others now think about this, what more would you have to do to prove that you love us you came down to Earth from the Heavens above us This is not abstract This is not fiction This was NOT practical This was tactical This is actual facts, Jack… This is not a made-up religion This is THAT decision A portrait that portrays A vision of HIS heart Obviously, this isn’t photography But Picture this…. you the Son of Jehovah underwent the most supreme extreme makeover outta royalty he undressed to become flesh yes,( to become a man) before you dismiss this mister and miss, you must understand there were no flaws in God’s laws or plans He was never timid when he made man in His image Jesus knew what he was saying when he said (it is finished) He had already been slain before worlds foundation In Abrahams seed and Sarahs barren womb, God founded a nation He called it blessed, though it cursed him They spat and cast stones, it’s unknown if it hurt him He had every right To Hurt them But instead, from what I read, he said, Forgive them, For They know not what they do We didn’t have a clue! This dude…. was more than just the King of the Jews He was the….. King of all Kings Creator of all things Lord of all rings, all necklaces and all watches Watch this As a man he has all power in his hand But when the Romans came, (he never ran) He had to tell Peter don’t kill, chill THIS is part of the plan This is how I will open my heart to man And offer him eternal life Death was our price, but Christ……. This is not abstract This is not fiction This was NOT practical This was tactical This is actual facts, Jack… This is not a made-up religion This is THAT decision A portrait that portrays A vision of HIS heart Obviously, this isn’t photography But Picture this…. lyrics: Joe Moore
