Precious, pulsating
Life pouring out
Like a crimson fountain
In slow agony and
Pain
Too few tears
Too little sorrow
They watch with
Obscene eagerness
Mocking, scorning
Blind
Too much loneliness
Friendless and forsaken
Abandoned and alone
A wretched cry
“Why have you abandoned me?”
Crucified
Too few answers
No torn skies
No dove descending
No warm approval
No voice from heaven
Silence
Too high a price
Too costly an exchange
His purity - mine
My depravity – his
He dies - I live
Atonement
Too deep a love
Risking all
No strings attached
Patent and enduring
To the ends of the earth
Offered
Too little understanding
I am a worm
Nothing to love
Tarnished and twisted
Yet You choose to love
Me
Too confused
You give too much
Why would you
Embrace a prodigal
Fresh from the pigsty with
Joy?
Too much to take in
I am overwhelmed
Wooed, I surrender
Conquered, I yield
And gladly become
Yours
